The Ella Quartet
The 2013 Fall Concert Series of the City of San Diego Public Library is launching a spectacular year of performances to celebrate the new Central Library. The excitement begins Sunday, September 29 with a string quartet recital by the Ella Quartet, composed of San Diego Symphony members Jisun Yang, Assistant Concertmaster/first violin; Julie Pautz, second violin; Gareth Zehngut, viola; Marcia Bookstein, cello.
The remainder of the Fall series features prominent local musicians, including Bach Collegium San Diego, Hausmann Quartet with soprano Ann Moss, Jory Herman and Friends (from San Diego Symphony and Art of Élan), San Diego Master Chorale, San Diego Children’s Choir, and Camarada Trio.
The Library began its Chamber Music Series in the mid-1950s. Critical and popular response encouraged the Library to increase the scope of the series into its present status of a Fall Concert Series and a Winter/Spring Concert Series. These series are made possible by the Friends of Central Library, the San Diego Public Library matching fund program, and public and private donations.
