Classroom Cantatas
Cantata Singers has valued underrepresented music since its inception—be it performing works by lesser-known composers, commissioning new music, or bringing vitally-needed music education to Boston’s school children through the Classroom Cantatas program. Classroom Cantatas is unique in its commitment to creation over imitation. Instead of teaching children to reproduce the music and styles of another time and tradition, Classroom Cantatas gives students the tools to create and express themselves using their own musical voices.
Cantata Confidential
Help shape the Cantata Singers experience!
Cantata Confidential is an audience initiative for people who don't currently attend classical music events but who understand that the arts can, and should, be a part of a vibrant society. We know there are barriers that keep people from seeking out classical music — we just can’t see them all from the inside. We want to hear the whole truth — the brutally honest truth — about what we can do to make our entire concert experience better for everyone. For more information, reach out to Executive Director Nick Adams at nadams@cantatasingers.org.
Lullaby Project
The Lullaby Project, a free program, pairs pregnant women and new parents with Teaching Artists to write and record personal lullabies for their babies, supporting maternal health, aiding childhood development, and strengthening the bond between parent and child. This is a partnership between Cantata Singers, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute. For information or inquiries, contact Lydia Consilvio at lconsilvio@cantatasingers.org.
