I've been told that there is a prestige class that gives bards level 9 spells. What is is?

Also is there any formal Cantor (divine caster bard) class or Dancer (like bard but uses dance rather than music) class?

I believe Sublime Cord from Complete Arcane gives you arcane spells up to level 9 by sacrificing bardic skills. There is also a divine bard variant class in Unearthed Arcana. Finally there is a prestige class called Spelldancer from Magic of Faerun that might be what your looking for.

I know only of the Sublime Chord, although you can use other PrCs to advance it's casting progression. If you don't mind having a lvl 9 divine spells, Divine Crusader, Apostle of Peace, or Ur-priest are also options.

The UA mentions the cantor concept has no spell list. Is there a cantor spell list anywhere?

I will try to find info on the spelldancer. Thank you.

Spelldancers only continue an existing progression, iirc. So if you only have the default bard spellcasting, they won't do.
