"As a result of the global COVID-19 health emergency, and our inability to guarantee a safe event for our members with all of the unknowns of the pandemic and the spreading of the variants of the virus, the International Clarinet Association has made the difficult decision to move ClarinetFest® 2021 to a virtual format. The Artistic Leadership Team for ClarinetFest® 2021 envisioned a very different plan but we are overcoming the continued challenges of COVID-19 to completely reimagine the possibilities! The Artistic Leadership Team is charging ahead with preparations for a globally-inclusive virtual ClarinetFest® and we look forward to hosting a wonderfully diverse event for our clarinet community. Although we will miss seeing each of you in Texas, redesigning the conference has allowed us the opportunity to respond to membership requests to relax the schedule.
Each event will be given a unique air time over four weekends in July (Fridays through Sundays) but will also remain available to registered attendees for one month."
