Cantus is a Norwegian women's choir founded in 1986. It consists of around 30 amateur singers,[1] and is based in Trondheim. Their director is Tove Ramlo-Ystad.[2]

Despite being an amateur choir, they keep holding a very good international standard, and have shown this through winning several competitions through the years.[3]

Cantus won the 1st Xinghai Prize International Choir Championships in Guangzhou, China (2012),[4] and is ranked as number 1 in their class, and 8th best in the world, on the webpages of interkultur.com.[5]

In 2013, Cantus appeared on the soundtrack of the Disney animated movie Frozen, with a Sámi inspired piece written by Frode Fjellheim and movie composer Christophe Beck.[6][7] In 2019, Cantus appeared again on the soundtrack of Frozen II.[8]
