Join us TODAY at 3:00 pm, when CAST presents Minas Brazilian Jazz & Rhythms in concert! Tickets are just $30. See a member of CAST or purchase yours at the door. With over four decades performing in a variety of formats, their professionalism and versatility, from the duo to ensemble, to orchestra and big band, has placed Minas in high demand. Minas takes Brazilian and American roots to create a sound that is fresh and innovative, from ballads tinged with melancholic traits of Blues and Choro, to Folk coasting on the subtle coolness of a Bossa Nova pulse, to upbeat Sambas elaborated with instrumental jazz improvisation, scat singing and whimsical whistling. Capturing the essence of great songwriting with memorable melodies, inventive harmonies, and poetic lyrics, the music of Minas is engaging and timeless.
In the main hallway you will see a whiteboard where you can sign up for an hour of prayer for our Maundy Thursday “overnight” vigil in the Cathedral Easter garden, ending at 10:00 pm on Thursday and resuming again at 6:00 am on Good Friday. There are spots that need to be filled at 8, 9 and 10am on Good Friday, but you can join us for any of the hours on the board.
