Cantabile - The London Quartet

“Cantabile,” pronounced “Can-TAH-bih-lay” — is an Italian musical notation cuing instrumentalists to play “in singing style.” This singularly talented vocal ensemble, alternately named The London Quartet, might be said to sing in instrumental style; its sound is so dynamic and full that it seems impossible that only four people are producing it. One of Britain’s most celebrated singing groups, Cantabile covers a dazzling array of musical styles, from Renaissance madrigals to Monty Python ditties. These gents are entertainers as well as musicians and spike their concerts with a very British wit, offering shows as slyly playful as they are musically sublime! As critic Tyne Compeyson puts it, “They are masters of the form, in a class by themselves, with a versatile sound rooted in the great English choral tradition.” For more information about Cantabile, visit www.cantabile.com
