  • Everyone should see this Cathedral Basilica at least once. At mass, the organ is an amazing sound that resounds from every corner. The choir is the most delightful and most powerful I have ever heard. Recalling this past Easter Mass, a young woman sang solo from the potium. I closed my eyes and felt as if an angel were chanting the Easter psalms.
