Central Library has announced a new season of Music on the Mezzanine, offering free live performances every fortnight and showcasing a mix of returning favourites and exciting new acts.

The programme features ten concerts, including the return of much-loved performers such as the Edinburgh Recorder Orchestra, Simmerdim and Vonodh Jayakrishnan, alongside first-time appearances from artists including Zonos and Moonlighting Flutes.

Audiences can enjoy a wide range of styles, from folk, classical and South Indian music to electronic soundscapes and Celtic-inspired jazz.

Highlights include violin and flute duo Luis Flores Carrubio and Ailsa Thompson on 14 February, a trio of young Scottish musicians on 28 February, percussionist and composer Valerie Thibault on 28 March, and a closing performance by the Composers Orchestra on 20 June.

Culture and Communities Convener Margaret Graham said:

Music on the Mezzanine has become a valued part of our cultural programme, bringing quality, accessible live music into the heart of the library.

We’re delighted to welcome audiences back for another inspiring series of concerts. This season reflects the diversity, creativity, and talent of our musicians, and there truly is something for everyone to enjoy.

Music on the Mezzanine concerts take place at 1pm every fortnight at Central Library. Tickets can be booked here.
