Cantaré is a shining star among children’s choirs. Repertoire, vocalism, education, and spirit - Cantaré has it all. Any composer would be thrilled to have his music sung by Cantaré and taught by Catherine Glaser-Climie!
Lee R. Kesselman, composer and conductor

Who could out-perform this amazing group of choirs that performed 18 pieces within a few days, consistently at the highest levels of artistry – technically, musically and emotionally?!

Since first working with Cantaré Children’s Choir in Dublin, Ireland in 2002 I have been enchanted, moved and delighted by the artistry and spirit that this wonderful choir and their amazing music director have brought to the many works of mine that they have performed, and to everything else that they do. Vive la Cantare!

Thank you so much for being an important part of the Requiem and for playing that part so spectacularly well. I had never composed music for children’s choir before and I was more than a little nervous! But you showed me I had nothing to worry about. I think I could have written anything and you would have responded with “Yeah, okay, no problem”. It was so great to work with you and to discover that my music was in such great hands. And you had the hardest part: you had to be birds AND sing in three different languages, one of which I bet none of you had ever heard before! Well done, everyone!
Jeffrey Ryan, Composer
