The Spring issue of Symphony, the League of American Orchestras’ award-winning magazine, is online now, free of charge. What’s in the new edition? In-depth coverage of the classical music scene in Ukraine, reported even as Russia invaded the country. As orchestras strive to become more welcoming, League President and CEO Simon Woods asks whether the concept of a classical “canon”—frozen in time, etched in stone—should be reconsidered. Symphony examines the real-world actions that orchestras are taking toward equity, diversity, and inclusion. And the new issue reports on how new homes for youth orchestras represent not only literal stakes in the ground, but fresh commitments to music education, young musicians, and the future. Print copies of Symphony are on the way, so check out all this and more right now online.
