Kantos | Seven Deadly Sins | Manchester

Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future.

Join Kantos for a sumptuous feast of musical transgression, choral indulgence, and heart-wrenching pleas for forgiveness with Frank Martin’s Mass for Double Choir.

The performance will feature world premieres from up-and-coming RNCM student composers Sophie Nolan and Alex Watson, and hair-raising cautionary tales that will make you think twice about straying from the straight and narrow...
