COVID-19 Update - A Musical Message of Hope
Prizewinners with the Chopin Foundation’s Executive Director, Barbara E. Muze
Miami, March 2020
As a non-profit presenting arts organization, the health and safety of our "Chopin Family" is paramount. In light of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 virus, and in consideration of current guidance from local health officials, the Chopin Foundation unfortunately was required to postpone all concerts scheduled in South Florida through the end of May 2020.
The following events will no longer take place as originally scheduled:
March 29 - Chopin in Key Biscayne
April 5 - Chopin Salon, La Gorce Country Club
April 18 - Chopin for All, Broward County Main Library
April 19 - Chopin for All, Granada Church, Coral Gables
May 16 - Chopin for All, Broward County Main Library
May 17 - Chopin for All, Granada Church, Coral Gables
We are optimistic for the future however, and until the Coronavirus has subsided we can look forward to the following:
1) As a result of the successful presentation of the 10th National Chopin Piano Competition, we have identified many incredible young American pianists that will join us in Florida for many seasons to come as we support their future careers as great concert artists. Stay tuned for the announcement of our 2020-21 Season!
2) We have captured the performances from our live streamed broadcast of the 2020 National Chopin Piano Competition and they are now available for you to view on YouTube from the convenience of your home.
Bookmark the channel and check back frequently as we continue to add new content from the 2020 Competition.
We invite you to continue following us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for more updates as we all “stay at home,” and eagerly anticipate a time when we can gather together to enjoy great live performances.
