Back at the Edendale branch on Thursday May 25th at 5 p.m., we will have our first in-person Edendale Up Close concert in our meeting room in a long while!  We’ve been doing them on Zoom since 2020, excited to get back to having live music in the library.  Maksim Velichkin will perform music for solo cello, from baroque to contemporary composers: Gabrieli, delAbaco, Reger, Bach, and more. He is an accomplished cellist, pianist and harpsichordist who has been active as a soloist, chamber musician and orchestra artists both here in California and internationally.
