Kantorei, or singers, formed in 1997 under the leadership of 6 friends who decided to form a choir capable of singing a broad range of a cappella choral music. With the addition of Richard Larson as director and a handful of additional singers, the group quickly found a footing in the cultural fabric of Denver, Colorado. Now in its 12th full season of performing, the group has expanded into an auditioned ensemble of 48 volunteer singers who meet weekly to rehearse. Many of the singers come from schools with strong choral music programs, such as Augustana, Brigham Young, Concordia, Luther, St. Olaf, Wartburg, and the University of Northern Colorado. Kantorei established itself as one of the nations premier choral ensembles after performing as an auditioned choir for the 2003 National American Choral Directors Association Conference at Carnegie Hall in New York City. Kantorei is the only community choir from Colorado ever to attend a national ACDA conference, a proud accomplishment considering the brevity of the groups existence. In June 2007, Kantorei embarked on its first-ever international tour to France and Italy. The tour culminated with the distinct honor of singing for High Mass at St. Peter's Basilica on invitation from the Vatican, solidifying the group's place among the finer choral arts ensembles nationally and internationally.
