Minnesota-based 11-strong all-male ensemble Cantus, since their founding at St. Olaf College in 1995 have had great fun performing around Minnesota, the country and the world, and recording excellent CDs ('There Lies The Home ' is their 10th). The authentic folk songs and sea chantys in 'Home' are popular choices in the group's repertoire. Some favorites are 'Break, Break, Break,' 'Songs of the Sea,' 'Jonah's Song,' 'Shenandoah,' 'Lowlands,' arranged by Alice Parker and Robert Shaw,' Gordon Lightfoot's 'Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald' and Sting's 'Valparaiso.' Beautiful liner notes, some light accompaniment. Powerful and evocative music!
