Cantate is a mixed-Voice youth Choir based in Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire. It is open to all young singers, whatever their background and musical upbringing.

Me hará señales de acudir, por una luz de eternidad cuando me llame, voy a ir. A preguntarle, por ese niño que con su muerte, lo perdí, que con "Nonino" se me fue... Cuando me diga, ven aquí... Renaceré... Porque... ¡Soy...! la raíz, del país que amasó con su arcilla. ¡Soy...! Sangre y piel, del "tano" aquel, que me dio su semilla. Adiós "Nonino".. que largo sin vos, será el camino. ¡Dolor, tristeza, la mesa y el pan...! Y mi adiós.. ¡Ay! Mi adiós, a tu amor, tu tabaco, tu vino. ¿Quién..? Sin piedad, me robó la mitad, al llevarte "Nonino"... Tal vez un día, yo también mirando atrás... Como vos, diga adiós ¡No va más..!  less
