We are back! Concert on May 22nd!!
Canticus Vocal Ensemble — Central Washington’s premier chamber chorus — is back in business.
After being unable to perform for the past two years due to the worldwide pandemic, Canticus will be making its first post-pandemic performance in Yakima at 4 p.m. Sunday, May 22, in the sanctuary at Englewood Christian Church, 511 North 44th Avenue.
The Central Washington University Chamber Choir will also be performing as special guests. The CWU Chamber Choir has performed in England, Spain, Germany and at many conferences of the American Choral Directors Association and the National Association for Music Education. Both choirs will be conducted by Scott Peterson, Canticus Vocal Ensemble’s artistic director.
The concert will include a wide variety of music such as “Five Hebrew Love Songs” by Eric Whitacre, “Flight Song” by Kim Andre Arneson, “If Music Be The Food Of Love” by David Dickau and many other works.
Tickets will be sold at the door. Admission to the concert is $10 for adults and $5 for students. Credit cards are accepted. Audience members are encouraged to wear masks during the performance to minimize the risk of infection.
