To our Patrons,
After some difficult deliberation, our Board has decided that in accordance with the recommendations of Governor Newsom and top health officials, it would be prudent to cancel our April 17/19 concerts. We look forward to welcoming back our audiences to a brilliant 2020-21 season this coming September. May we all stay healthy and be able to put this experience behind us quickly.
