Spreckels Organ Society, a non-profit organization curating concerts and performances at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion in the heart of Balboa Park, celebrates Halloween with a special Spooktacular concert featuring Phantom of the Opera and Haunted Organ Tour on Saturday, Oct. 26.
Beginning at 5:30 p.m., The Haunted Pavilion opens to the public for a kid-friendly insider tour “Meet the Great Composers Decomposing,” joined by zombies from Thriller San Diego (first-come, first-served). At 6:30 p.m., the concert begins with Spooktacular organ solos, led by Spreckels Organ Artistic Director Raul Prieto Ramírez, who is also San Diego’s Civic Organist; followed by a “Phantom of the Opera” concert with Soprano Caroline Nelms and Tenor Bernardo Bermudez.
The program – free and open to the public – includes state-of-the-art spooky projections on the Pavilion by SonderEyes to provide a unique Halloween visual experience that goes with the music.
The Spreckels Organ Pavilion is the largest open air musical instrument in the world! Set in the beautiful backdrop of Balboa Park’s open-air venue, performances bring a one-of-a-kind experience for guests. The elevated music venue brings world-class musical artists for San Diegans and visitors to enjoy, for free.
The Spreckels Organ Society hosts weekly concerts every Sunday at 2:00 p.m. Through the generosity of the City of San Diego, the weekly Spreckels Organ Society concerts at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion are presented at no charge in accordance with the 1915 Deed of Gift whereby the brothers John and Adolph Spreckels gave the organ and pavilion to the City of San Diego. Donations are always accepted.
The Spreckels Organ Pavilion is located at 2125 Pan American Road. For more information about the Spreckels Organ Society, visit www.SpreckelsOrgan.org.
