December: Oakland, Cathedral of Christ the Light


The Cathedral of Christ the Light in Oakland opened in September of 2008; this was our first time there. It's a spectacular building in downtown Oakland designed by Craig Hartman of Skidmore Owings Merrill in San Francisco - he designed the new International Terminal at SFO, also a building very much about light. Word of the acoustics has been spreading - it really is a wonderful large wood-filled room, with nothing but sight-lines- a welcoming haven for the audience. The concert was sold out - over 1000 people. We'd like to sing here often and hope it's the beginning of a beautiful friendship! Christmas was a great way to start.
