Summer Festival-Beethoven

The Athenaeum Music
& Arts Library’s Summer Festival with pianist Gustavo Romero has become a
cherished tradition in San Diego.
The 2014 Athenaeum Summer Festival, the 16th, has been announced. This summer, well-known
pianist Gustavo Romero will return for a four-part concert series, celebrating composer Ludwig
van Beethoven.



Romero, a native San
Diegan, first performed at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library as a young
boy, and it was with him that the Athenaeum planned its first Summer Festival
in 1999, the organization’s 100th anniversary. Each year, Romero chooses composers
to study in depth, sharing the full range of their artistry.



Dinners are offered after each concert in private
homes or at the Athenaeum. All concerts begin at 4:00 p.m. at The Scripps
Research Institute.
