Rock On! Great Music at Your Library in July
|
Plato said, "Music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." Take flight with the library this summer as a range of musicians share their unique sounds. From instruments such as the cello to a two-necked guitar, and music inspired by Shakespeare to music created with your own voice, take a musical journey with us this month.
