COVID-19 UPDATE
Dear SSWPA Members, Teachers, and Young Artists,
The threat of the spread of the COVID-19 has made a huge impact in our everyday lives. As we adjust to help prevent the spread of the virus, there are SSWPA events that are scheduled in the coming weeks which will be affected, and some others that could be affected.
For our Young Artist events, we will ensure to keep you posted, as we draw closer to the dates, on any cancellations or rescheduling. Students should continue practicing to perfect their program during this down time from school and other activities.
We will miss seeing our members for the final Piano Series Concert. Please do stay safe and healthy during this most unfortunate time.
Sincerely,
The SSWPA Board
The threat of the spread of the COVID-19 has made a huge impact in our everyday lives. As we adjust to help prevent the spread of the virus, there are SSWPA events that are scheduled in the coming weeks which will be affected, and some others that could be affected.
- With CMU and other major institutions experiencing closures for an indefinite period of time, it is with extreme regret that our final concert in our Piano Concert Series with Yi-Nuo Wang, scheduled for April 5, 2020 is cancelled. There are no plans to reschedule this concert due to the unpredictability of closures and coronavirus precautions. We hope that all our members will look forward to the 2020-2021 season where we will provide another fabulous Piano Concert Series.
- The final Young Artist Honors Recital scheduled on April 26th will, be moved to April 19th, as it conflicts with one of our Heinz Hall recitals. The Honor Recital will take place at the Center for Young Musicians, 437 Beaver Street, Sewickley, PA 15143. For those Young Artists who have not yet performed in an Honors Recital, this will be the last opportunity for this season. Ensure you sign up once the request is sent out.
- Our remaining Young Artist recitals at Heinz Hall that are scheduled at the end of April and through May are contingent upon the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra resuming their concerts, which are now canceled until the end of March.
- Auditions for the Young Artist program are still scheduled for May 16th and 17th, at Duquesne University, Mary Pappert School of Music. The application for the audition for the 2020-2021 season has been posted to the SSWPA website.
For our Young Artist events, we will ensure to keep you posted, as we draw closer to the dates, on any cancellations or rescheduling. Students should continue practicing to perfect their program during this down time from school and other activities.
We will miss seeing our members for the final Piano Series Concert. Please do stay safe and healthy during this most unfortunate time.
