Central Library Concert Series, Winter/Spring 2009
The
Central Library is pleased to announce the schedule for the
Winter/Spring season of its annual concert series. The series is made
possible by public and private donations, and by the San Diego Public
Library matching fund program. The concerts are very important to the
musicians in the series because they provide a venue for them to
perform locally. The community has responded enthusiastically as well,
as shown by steadily growing attendance by musicians, music lovers,
music appreciation students and San Diego residents. During the
2007-2008 series alone, over 1,100 people attended the concert series.
