Some of the world's most respected musicians have made their way to San Diego this August to participate in Summerfest, a three week long chamber music festival featuring concerts, open rehearsals and coaching sessions.
As part of Summerfest, the public is invited to watch what are called "master classes," in which a well known musician mentors a young musician selected by the La Jolla Music Society. Organizers say it is a way for those at the top of their field to pass on their love for music and help influence a young musician's voice.
For more information about the concerts and free events, you can visit the Summerfest website.
