November 7, 2009– 8:00 pm
Founder's Dinner – 6:00 pm
Church of St. John the Evangelist

As a special addition to our season, CAE is pleased to welcome the men of Cantus to Rochester! Recognized as one of America's finest professional male vocal ensembles, Cantus enjoys a vigorous schedule of national tours, subscription concerts in its home of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, educational outreach programs, and recording. The Washington Post hails the ensemble’s sound as having both “exalting finesse” and “expressive power,” and refers to their music-making as "spontaneous grace." Rehearsing and performing without a conductor, the ensemble's programs span many periods and genres, including chant, Renaissance music, contemporary works, art song, folk, spirituals, world music, and pop. Join us for the concert only, or consider joining us for a pre-concert Founder’s Dinner as well at which CAE’s founder, Rick Kvam, will be honored.

This performance is not part of the season ticket packages. Tickets are available at the CAE office until noon on Friday, November 6, or they can be purchased at the door Saturday evening.
