Overview

From its website

Cantata Profana is a New York-based chamber music ensemble that reimagines classical programming by juxtaposing rarely-heard works from the medieval era to the 21st century in theatrical, curated shows. Founded in 2013 by Artistic Director Jacob Ashworth, the ensemble has been praised as a 'crack ensemble' by the New Yorker and 'an outstanding ensemble' by the New York Times. After ten years of performances at venues including Joe's Pub, MATA Festival, and the Stone, Cantata Profana closed its doors after its final season in 2022-23, celebrating the careers of its artists who have moved on to new appointments worldwide.
