Chromatica, East Bay’s popular chorus, announces its 15th anniversary season with two concert series in November 2026 and April 2027.
Chromatica invites you to “Our Journey Home”, with captivating music celebrating home in all its forms. Fall concerts will be at 3pm on November 7 at Holy Shepherd Lutheran Church, 433 Moraga Way in Orinda, and at 7pm November 8 at Peace Lutheran Church, 3201 Camino Tassajara in Danville, The Danville concert will include Chromatica’s popular post-concert wine reception


Chromatica’s first public concerts were performed in 2012. Performing a repertoire significantly different from other community choruses, Chromatica has sung music from the 12th to the 21st centuries, in many different languages and genres. It has carved out a unique identity along with three commissions developed exclusively for it. The latest, Christopher Tin’s Transfigurations, was performed to a standing ovation by Chromatica in Santa Fe New Mexico in January 2026 – its first trip outside the Bay Area. It will travel to London in 2028. Chromatica is already working on a new major commission from a nationally recognized composer. 
Chromatica’s final 15th
anniversary concerts will be performed in April 2027 and will include pieces that have delighted our audiences and singers over the past 15 years.
“It is astonishing to look back over the past 15 years and remember our beginnings with 8 singers. We have come a long way and I’m immensely proud of what Chromatica has achieved. But I do believe this is only the beginning as we look towards our next major commission, and planned travel overseas in 2028. I’m very grateful to our audiences and of course our singers – these will be memorable concerts” said Chromatica’s director David Huff.

Ease into your Sunday with mindful movement, gentle stretching, and time to breathe. Led by a rotating lineup of yoga teachers, each bringing their own style and warmth, this welcoming practice invites you to move at your own pace. Stay afterward for coffee, conversation, and community—we’d love to spend part of our Sunday with you.
Why We Bring Yoga to Behavioral Fitness
At Behavioral Fitness, movement has always been an essential part of wellbeing — and yoga has been at the heart of that vision since the very beginning. We’ve been supporting free community yoga since 2019, beginning in Arbolado Park, and now, with the support of the generous donors of PEACE (Providing Easier Access to Care Everywhere) — a registered 501(c)(3)nonprofit — we’re able to bring these offerings into our beautiful studio space.
We have long believed in the transformative power of yoga. The research is compelling, and its value is undeniable. Yoga supports physical strength and flexibility, but just as importantly, it helps calm the nervous system, increase awareness, and cultivate balance from within.
Access matters. Many people have never had a truly safe, welcoming place to try yoga — to learn not only the movements, but also the deeper principles of mindfulness, self-compassion, and connection that make yoga such a powerful practice.
Our goal at Behavioral Fitness is to change that. By offering yoga and other wellness experiences at below-market rates, made possible through PEACE’s generous donors, we’re creating opportunities for people to explore movement, healing, and community in ways that are both accessible and meaningful.
How you can help:
• Show up — for yourself and your community.
• Share our offerings with others so more people benefit- help spread the word - it’s the greatest gift!
• Support PEACE and Behavioral Fitness so we can continue to grow and reach more people.
Together, we’re building something bright, local, and deeply needed — a community of care where everyone belongs.
Let’s build wellness like a local.
