music in the mausoleum

[calimac]

This has apparently been going on annually for a decade, but I hadn't heard of it until n6tqs mentioned it to me a couple days ago: The Garden of Memory, a walk-through concert. Various musicians - the ones I've heard of are mostly ambient environmentalists of the "Deep Listening" school - will be playing continuously for four hours in the nooks and crannies of a mausoleum in Oakland on Wednesday evening.

My musical experiences in buildings designed by Julia Morgan have been pleasant ones. This sounds very cool, and I think I shall go.

A collateral bit of interestingness from your link there is that I was able to see that Maggi Payne, whom I chiefly have heard of as a remastering engineer of historical recordings, is also an accomplished composer, academic, and recording engineer.
