Cantillation is a renowned Australian chamber choir, widely acclaimed for its performances and recordings of choral works spanning from the Renaissance to contemporary art music. The ensemble, often celebrated for its pure and clear sound, consists of a diverse group of vocalists who are selected based on the specific requirements of each repertoire they undertake. Cantillation has gained recognition for bringing both precision and soul to their performances, underpinned by a profound understanding of the choral tradition and an expressive musicianship that speaks to audiences of all backgrounds.

Their recordings have become well-regarded interpretations of classical masterpieces, as evidenced by their most recent releases including a live performance of Handel's "Theodora," Haydn's "L'anima del filosofo," and Mozart's "Requiem," which is part of the extensive "1000 Years of Classical Music" series. Along with their dedication to the works of Baroque and Classical periods, as shown in albums like "Allegri: Miserere," "Arcadia Lost," and "Hallelujah! A Celebration of Baroque Choruses," Cantillation also explores the choral landscapes of thematic works such as "Mozart: Idomeneo" and delivers sublime renditions of traditional pieces like "Ye Banks and Braes," exhibiting their versatility and passion for choral art in all its forms.
