The courtyard of the Central Library in Copley Square is one of Boston's most beautiful havens from the hustle and bustle of the city. As is now tradition, the iconic space fills with music during Friday afternoons in the summertime.

Every Friday at 12:30 p.m. (from July 10 through August 28), tune into the to the BPL’s YouTube channel to enjoy an hour of free music in styles ranging from jazz and singer-songwriter to experimental and contemporary classical to Latin and African American spirituals.
