Kantorei

The Kantorei, a select religious choir of 30 voices, sings a diverse repertoire of sacred music from chant to folk, multicultural, and vernacular idioms.

The Kantorei serves as a choir of the Chapel of the Resurrection. The ensemble sings regularly for Sunday morning worship services, evensong services, Holy Week observances, Christmas at Valpo, Baccalaureate, and other services at the Chapel. In the Chapel, they have introduced new musical settings of eucharistic liturgy and have presented an array of global hymnody.

When the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America published new hymnals, the Kantorei presented training and educational events for Lutheran conferences and synods exploring the new worship materials. Their tour continued this work, introducing Lutheran audiences to the Lutheran Service Book and Evangelical Lutheran Worship.

The Kantorei sings regularly at the annual Institute of Liturgical Studies and has performed with Valpo’s Chorale, Symphony Orchestra, and Chamber Concert Band.
