These people were the exceptional organists of decades ago. In the middle of the photo sits Ms. Charlotte Speik, the supervisor of Art and Music Section of San Diego Public Library. The background of this photo is the famous Spreckels Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park. The Spreckels Organ Pavilion is the home of the world's largest outdoor pipe organ with over 4,500 pipes. It was constructed for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition and given to the City by brothers John and Adolf Spreckels. The 35th International Summer Organ Festival 2023 (6/26-9/4, Mondays 7:30pm) is being held right now, and you can experience the melodic wonders and witness the remarkable talents of our local musicians.
