Their fifth release on Signum Classics, the “engaging” (New Yorker) men’s vocal ensemble Cantus present a collection of songs cycles by contemporary and living composers, exploring different kinds of journeys through song.
“These contrasting song cycles share an embrace of change, growth, acceptance and renewal, and through the collective experience of their journeys – great and small, painful and magical – we gain a clearer picture of life and of ourselves” – Cantus
“Celebrating their 30th anniversary, Cantus’s lineup may have evolved, but their exquisite vocal cohesion and interpretative clarity remain constant. Fields of Wonder is a bold, intelligent release that confirms Cantus as one of today’s most vital vocal ensembles” – Textura
“I was mesmerized by Fields of Wonder” – Cultural Attache
“The Cras and Bonds recordings are important items indeed — lovely, little-known music and a major discovery in the field of African American song.” – Allmusic
