Das norddeutsche Kantorat im 18. Jahrhundert - Kremer, Joachim (Kassel New York Bärenreiter, 1995)
A Cantorate, in Evangelical Churches, is a territorial unit of a parish, an Evangelical school or a house of prayer (chapel). The term also means a vocal group led by a cantor or his workstation. The Cantorate as musical office in the 18th century was responsible for all musical activities, including school, church and scientific institutions.
