ABOUT CANTARE
Youth and Adult Choir Programs
Youth Programs
Cantare’s innovative and inclusive in-school music education classes and afterschool choirs reach underserved Oakland children who lack access to the arts. We provide tuition-free choral music instruction led by experienced teaching artists—and offer students a safe, supportive, and fun experience through our multicultural curriculum.
“Cantare offers so much potential to all of our students through the world of music. Through hard work and determination, students learn to love music and how to work together as a team!”
–John Lee, Assistant Principal, Lincoln Elementary
Adult Choirs
Cantare’s auditioned 100-voice symphonic Chorale rehearses and performs a variety of compelling and challenging choral music during our concert season (August - April)
During the summer, our Summer Choir (non-auditioned) performed a selection of songs about Love at their concert, Can’t Take My Eyes Off You.
