Cantonelle Ladies Choir is an amateur ladies choir based in Carlisle, Cumbria. Cantonelle arose from the demise of the long established mixed-voice Carlisle Choral Society in 1993. The choir currently has about 30 members and is conducted by Darren Williams.

The choir is always interested in recruiting new members. Please contact Christine, the society's secretary on 016974 78206 or email her here: for further information.

Repertoire

Cantonelle give 6-8 concerts per year in a variety of venues in north Cumbria. Our repertoire embraces classical, operatic, musicals, spirituals and folksongs, some of the music being specially arranged by our Musical Director.

Our programmes also feature items by other local musicians and instrumental groups and we sometimes take part in the Carlisle Music Festival. Please contact the secretary if you would like to book the choir for your event.

The choir produced a CD of our work in 2005 with Sean Rea, our previous conductor. Sean was formerly principal bass at the English and Welsh National Operas. Copies can be obtained from the secretary for £5 (plus £1 post and packing - please make cheques payable to "Cantonelle"). Click here for address:
