To our choral colleagues around the world, please know that Choral Canada stands with you in these unprecedented times. We have all been heartbroken to see our artistic seasons and all the beautiful, community-driven music projects we have been preparing over recent months seemingly vanish, or at least be put on indefinite hold, as the planet deals with the global health crisis at hand. We are devastated for our students and their institutions, seeing educational programs cancelled or moved online, an impractical solution for musicians. We are sorry to see our industry members have their businesses feel the impact of these troubling economic times. Like us, choral organizations around the globe are cancelling many programs that were created to serve you, our choral community. We long for a time when we will all be able to come together to sing our stories once again. However, that time is not yet here.
Given the circumstances in which we all find ourselves due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we regret to inform you that PODIUM 2020 and the National Youth Choir program will not take place in Montreal, Quebec, 14-17 May 2020, as planned.
Official magazine of the International Federation for Choral Music, the International Choral Magazine is published quarterly in the four official languages of IFCM: English, French, German and Spanish. It is distributed in more than 80 countries on the five continents and is the official voice of choral music around the world.
