For over 20 years Schola Cantorum, a 12-voice vocal ensemble, has been
recognized for lively and evocative performances of Renaissance sacred
music. Schola sings music from Machaut and Ciconia (14th-century)
through the great 16th-century masters: Byrd, Victoria, Lasso and
Palestrina. We have often explored works from Tudor England --
Taverner, Tallis, Faryfax -- and the Eton Choirbook repertoire. With
Joel Cohen, we have performed at Tanglewood and served as the chorus
for the Boston Camerata, winning several prizes for recordings ranging
from Music from New Spain, to French Baroque works of Gilles and
Charpentier, and American shape-note and Shaker Music.
Schola
Cantorum has also performed at the annual convention of the American
Renaissance Society and the Boston Early Music Festival. Founder and
Director Frederick Jodry has been acclaimed as an organist, a singer,
and (since 1991) as the conductor of the Brown University Chorus.
