This will be the Cantori’s 52nd year of singing in the Albert Lea area.

Cantori is one of the longest-running community choirs in Minnesota.

Singers rehearse weekly and come, not only from Albert Lea, but the surrounding areas of Austin, Blue Earth, Bricelyn, Emmons and Hayward.

This concert is open to the public, and there will be a freewill offering. This is a great way to start the holiday season, and the Cantori hopes to see many people there.
