Sarasota Orchestra Cancels Summer Music Camp

Coconut Telegraph

Sarasota Orchestra has made the difficult decision to cancel this year's Summer Music Camp. The safety of our campers, their families, and our faculty and staff is paramount in this decision, which is driven by three primary factors:

—Our facility lacks the space necessary to properly distance music students and faculty for our programs.

—The measures recommended by the CDC, including mask-wearing and restricted interaction among students, would eliminate core programming and dramatically reduce enrollment, thereby affecting artistic and economic feasibility.

—Holding Summer Music Camp in current circumstances would pose unacceptable health and safety risks.

Shortly after the 4th of July holiday, Sarasota Orchestra's web space will host videos, masterclasses, and activities to keep the whole community musically engaged. Curated by Sarasota Orchestra musicians, education faculty, and staff, this virtual content will instill a deeper understanding of music and guide practical approaches to improve overall musicianship.

Designed for a wide range of skill levels, these activities may be accessed anytime, from anywhere, nurturing passion for great music and enriching the summer for family members of all ages. Please spread the word with young people who you think would benefit, or take a look yourself! Stay tuned for a full listing of activities coming July 1.
