St. James Cathedral Cantorei (Seattle) – Upcoming Concerts

The St. James Cathedral Cantorei is the professional ensemble comprised of section leaders from the Cathedral Choir and the Women of St. James Schola. Cantorei members, who have active and accomplished careers as soloists, choral artists, and music educators, provide music for the 10am and 12pm Masses during the summer months when the Cathedral Choir is in recess. The individual members of the Cantorei minister as cantors, soloists, and psalmists at all sung liturgies at St. James and at the monthly ecumenical service with music from Taizé—nearly 600 services a year. As a choral ensemble they have performed such works as Parry's Songs of Farewell, Bach's Magnificat, Handel's Dixit Dominus, Tallis' Lamentations of Jeremiah, Mozart's Solemn Vespers, and Charpentier's Messe de minuit pour Noël.
