I grew up in St. Louis (and Catholic) but moved away at the age of nineteen. However, I never go back to St. Louis without a visit to the Cathedral.

Who knew we had such a marvel in America? It easily rivals anything I visited in Europe, even the Vatican. I had the opportunity to sing there while attending a music camp-what a treat! I lot of reverb, much like you'd expect.
