Creativity is one way I connect with myself and others. For this reason, I enjoy when art is formally combined with spirituality. Tonight I went to the Summer Solstice Concert at the Chapel of Chimes; a building designed by famous Arts and Crafts era architect, Julia Morgan. The concert is put on each year by New Music Bay Area. Thirty nine performers played throughout the chapel and adjoining mausoleum. I love weaving through the hidden passageways, exploring the architectural details and beautiful spaces, to find intimate gatherings and a variety of sounds. Other chapels that integrate art and architecture well are Wayfarers Chapel by Frank Lloyd Wright and the Rothko Chapel.
