What does it mean to be a man? How do we define "masculinity" in these rapidly changing times? And what values to fathers want to pass on to their sons today?
Those are some of the questions that the all-male ensemble Cantus took up — and sought to answer with music — in their special Brave.
Join host Steve Seel and the men of Cantus for a one-hour program that explores manhood in the 21st century, with inspiring musical selections and powerful words from the men of Cantus themselves.
