We present Sligo Music Series 2002-2003.

Con Brio is a voluntary organisation established in 1999 to provide Sligo with a regular season of concerts. All our performers are professional musicians of the highest calibre.
Sligo Music Series is the fruit of the collaboration between Con Brio and the Vogler Quartet in Sligo.
