Seeking Woods Hole Cantata Consort Music Director for 2027 Summer Season and Beyond

The Woods Hole Cantata Consort is a summer community chorale and chamber orchestra located in the village of Woods Hole in the town of Falmouth on Cape Cod. For 52 years, we have performed a high-quality program of classical and “classical-adjacent” music once a year for the local community.

Our organization consists of approximately 45 adults with diverse musical skills who come together to rehearse weekly (and occasionally twice-weekly) from mid-June until we perform in mid-August.  In recent years we have performed major and minor works by Mozart, Bach, Purcell, and Handel as well as folk song arrangements by Rutter, works by Ola Gjeilo, and lesser-known songs by Bob Chilcott and Sarah Quartel.
