On Monday, May 17 at 7 p.m., Warren D. Huse and Lawrence Leonard will present a history of music in Laconia. In addition to reviewing local musical notables, including Henry Gorrell, opera singer, Huse plans to talk about local music teachers, performers (to include groups, bands and orchestras), music stores, and the Kinsman Organ Company, which made electronic organs here for a number of years in the 1950s.
The lecture will also focus a bit on the New Hampshire Music Festival, which was organized by Laconia people. Larry Leonard will include a talk about pipe organs in the city, past and present.
The lecture is free and open to the public at the Laconia Library. For more info call 527.1278.
