Sir Isaac Newton famously said, "If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." There are artists who have left an indelible mark in music with works that are both timeless and instantly recognizable. The newest release from Cantus, "On the Shoulders of Giants," celebrates the influence and inspiration of composers who have come before us. Including repertoire that spans nearly a thousand years from "Sederunt", one of the first known works of polyphony- to U2's "MLK," along with works by Sibelius, Mendelssohn, Schubert and Randall Thompson, Cantus delivers performances with its trademark warmth and blend.
