All concerts of the Spreckels Organ are exclusively online – not as live events at the Organ Pavilion. This is a continuation of online-only programming that began in March of 2020 to protect public health. The San Diego Park & Recreation Department oversees the Pavilion venue. No activity or gathering there is permitted. For music, the one-hour concerts posted weekly are how we keep the music flowing. This week, March 28 at 2 p.m. join the Live Chat and premiere — or view the program later if convenient. CLICK HERE FOR THE LINK.
