Veterans of San Francisco`s finest vocal groups, Clerestory`s singers, from countertenor to bass, remain members of the Bay Area choral community and pride themselves on providing unparalleled performances to local audiences at progressive prices. Clerestory is named for cathedral windows that let in daylight; we tell the "clear story" of the music we sing through sophisticated performances grounded in decades of experience singing together. Clerestory is a tax-exempt non-profit that relies on you to sustain our unique mission.
This concert is made possible by a sponsorship from two of our members so that all the proceeds after expenses can benefit the General Fund of the Center for Spiritual Living. Our heartfelt gratitude to the donors and to Clerestory for the music, healing and inspiration.
