Holiday concert in sacred setting
Spectacular venue hosts excellent concert.
The basilica was truly magnificent and the acoustics for the concert were excellent, far exceeding our expectations. The organ pieces, while very good on their own, were enhanced by the beauty of the basilica. We had a great time and would recommend this concert.
