About Us: The Cantate Singers was founded in 1992 under the leadership of Freeman Lehman and has performed throughout northeast Ohio. Since 2005, William Mateer has served as music director. Mr. Mateer, formerly the Executive Director of the Mental Health and Recovery Board of Wayne and Holmes Counties, was a music education major at The College of Wooster and holds a master of music degree from West Virginia University. The Cantate Singers performs a wide variety of music in many different styles. The group often performs challenging repertoire, both a cappella and with instruments, including full orchestra. The choir is active in the spring and fall, typically giving performances in April and again in November. The Cantate Singers is an ecumenical organization that strives to afford local musicians opportunities to perform music of the highest quality and to enrich the cultural life of our community in ways that acknowledge the Creator and Sustainer of life. The Cantate Singers is a 501(c)(3) organization and welcomes contributions to support its work.
