DESCRIPTION:
Brief excerpt from the June 28, 2015 concert of the 2015 Concert Series @ Westwood Library, featuring guest artists the Brass Pacifica Quintet in a pre-4th of July fun program of American band music for the entire family. All concerts are free and open to the public.

The Concert Series @ Westwood Library is founded on the Quartet-in-Residence Program, an innovative musical residency at a public library, which was created in 2014 by the Los Angeles Musical Salon in cooperation with the Westwood Branch Library. This is the first time such a musical residency program has been created in the Los Angeles Public Library System.

Entering its second season in 2015, this year the Series includes three concerts by the Library's Quartet in Residence, the Fiato String Quartet, plus this special 4th of July concert by the Brass Pacifica Quartet.

From the very first, this series has been a great success, with each concert attracting audiences of 100 people or more. The series brings high quality classical music into the local community while also providing public performance opportunities for rising young professional artists.

Funding for the 2015 Season of the Concert Series @ Westwood Library program was generously provided by the following: Friends of Westwood Library; Office of Councilmember Paul Koretz, Fifth Council District; Westwood Homeowners Association; Westwood Hills Property Owners Association in honor of Zev Yaroslavsky; Westwood Village Rotary Club; Holmby-Westwood Property Owners Association; and the Los Angeles Musical Salon. Support for this program is also provided through the City of Los Angeles Arts Development Fee Program, Department of Cultural Affairs.
