Santuaries Makes the Associate Press

Remember Sanctuaries? Title link takes you to a write up via the AP.

"It was one of the more unusual summer concert tours veteran composer Gary Chang had undertaken, performing futuristic, electronic music in centuries-old sacred cathedrals.

Chang, who has composed dozens of soundtracks and scores for movies and television, recently returned from Italy, where he brought modern surround-sound-type compositions to some of the country's most venerable landmarks.

'It was kind of a monumental idea,' Chang said with a laugh. 'Let's send 500 pounds worth of gear halfway around the world and drag it around to churches.'

But he'd been fascinated for decades by the acoustics of the ancient cathedrals and always wondered how they might sound when filled with electronic compositions that were filtered through a state-of-the-art 5.1 theatrical sound system."
