We will perform on Saturday, June 19  at 7PM at Eden United Church of Christ in Hayward.

"Love and the Unknown" 
April 17-18, 2010

We hope you were able to join us for one of our Spring 2010 performances.   

On April 17 and 18, under the direction of guest conductor Steven Brunsvold, we presented a  program of music that explored the wide breadth of the human condition -- joyful singing and praise to God, the awareness and enjoyment of nature's beauty, romantic love, and the exploration of the age-old fascination and fear of death.  

We performed on April 17 at First Presbyterian Church of Alameda, and on April 18 at Old Mission San Jose in Fremont
