Looking for performance space in Walnut Creek, CA area

Date: March 9, 2010

Can anyone suggest a performance venue in the Walnut Creek area? It would be best if the venue were a church with a live to very live accoustic and sat at least 300-400 people. Other places we'll be performing during this run include SF's Grace Cathedral and Oakland's Christ the Light Cathedral, so you see the sort of accoustic we are looking for.

Many thanks...

Matthew:

I would try St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Oak Grove Road, Concord. Its close to Walnut Creek; has a great acoustic for choral music and seats a lot of people. The pipe organ and piano are both good instruments.

I ran a choir in the area for five years and this was the best venue for miles.

Alternatively you could try my church, St. Dominic's in San Francisco, www.stdominics.org
