July 7, 2012

Day # 1 - San Francisco to Denver

Left SFO about 6:00 a.m. and arrived in Denver about 9:30 a.m.
Supershuttle took us to the Denver Marriott City Center Hotel where we checked in.
I roomed with Albert Sammons who sings with me in Counterpoint.

GALA Festival 2012 - Denver

We walked to the Performing Arts Complex where we picked up our GALA registration badges and concert booklet.


Sculpture Park and Saloon -
a gathering place for the festival. 



We also checked out the Stage Theatre where we will be performing on Monday evening with Counterpoint. It is a beautiful intimate theatre that seats about 450 people.

We also browsed in the GALA store where CDs and GALA merchandise is sold.

Golden Gate Men's Chorus Street Banner


 
Saturday evening I heard 11 different small ensemble choruses perform 15-minute sets. There was a wide variety of music and level of performance. My favorites were Breve, Inner Voices, 7th Son, and Illuminati.

Back to the hotel about 11 p.m.
