Cantecleer Kamerkoor Concert

On Sunday evening 22 November, Kamerkoor Cantecleer will perform its autumn concert Musical Birds at the Waalse Kerk in Breda. The programme centres on birds. Composers have been inspired by birdsong and the autumn migration for centuries. The choir will sing music ranging from the Renaissance to the present day. Pianist Ben Martijn Weijand will accompany the choir for part of the programme and will also perform several solo piano works on the theme of birds. During the concert, a digital presentation will feature images of birds and what they have symbolised throughout the centuries.

Chamber Choir Cantecleer is an amateur kamerkoor from Breda, founded in 1981 by conductor Geert van den Dungen, who still leads the choir. The choir mainly sings a cappella music from the Renaissance and the twentieth century.
