The New York Philharmonic has this week announced the cancellation of all performances between now and the 5th of January, 2021 – due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.
At this stage regular concerts are scheduled to tentatively resume on January 6th, 2021.
“Our number one concern is the health and safety of our audiences, musicians, and employees … it has become very clear that large groups of people will not be able to safely gather for the remainder of the calendar year due to the COVID-19 pandemic …” New York Philharmonic President and CEO Deborah Borda has this week said.
“Our decision to let the entire Philharmonic family and our public know at this time has been strongly informed by New York State government regulations, along with the advice of medical experts,” she has said.
