Across the world, orchestral music is shut down, for many months to come. Hear from some of our national association leaders about how orchestras in their countries are coping with lockdown, and what the long term prognosis is for the survival of the orchestral sector, before opening up for a global conversation to include voices from Asia and Latin America.
Will orchestras be back in concert halls any time soon, or will social distancing destroy our fragile business model? Will audiences feel confident about coming back to our halls, or will we see an inevitable shift to digital?
These questions and more will be up for discussion as we debate what this all means for our global network of orchestras.
