Amare Cantare Presents "Advent"

An auditioned chamber chorus that strives for musical excellence in the performance of challenging and diverse repertoire, we seek to foster a vital arts community, collaborate with other organizations, provide opportunities for artistic fulfillment for our singers, and share our love of music with our audiences. Since 1977, Amare Cantare (“to love to sing”) has performed masterworks and choral music from six centuries. Based in Durham, New Hampshire, the group’s members come from all over the Seacoast.

Our December concert series, "Advent", explores the anticipation, volatility, joy, and, ultimately, hope that come with a fresh start. The program travels from the grandeur of Enlightenment Prussia to the American Revolution, and from psalm settings composed under occupation to a similarly occupied Holy Land and the plight of a refugee messiah. We may even have a carol or two planned for you!
