Dear members and friends of the Pamlico Musical Society,
I hope you and your families are safe and healthy and you continue to find opportunities for fun and friends in these challenging times! It has been a few months since my last email and I wanted to take a moment to update you on changes and decisions for our 2020-21 concert season. As you know, State and local restrictions in response to the pandemic continue to hinder our ability to present concerts and outreach events. We just don’t know when that will change, but we’re closely monitoring developments and staying in touch with other music presenters across North Carolina.
Thank you for participating in the survey we sent out in July! This gave the Board important information about your willingness to attend concerts during the pandemic. Your message was clear: we need to follow State and local restrictions, enforce face coverings and social distancing, and outdoor venues were preferred over indoor venues during this time. Given those parameters, the Board decided to reschedule all concerts and outreach events through the end of January 2021. We will evaluate the concerts scheduled for February, March, and April on a case-by-case basis as circumstances develop and make decisions accordingly.
The artists and agents are wonderful to work with – everyone wants to do what’s best in a bad situation, and their flexibility and commitment to reschedule has been exceptional. The line-up of talent you see on our website will still be coming to our community, but those performances will be several months or a year after we had intended to present them. If you already have tickets for FY5 or Midori, please continue to hold onto them, and as soon as I have the new dates we will let you know. At that time, we will contact ticket holders to provide options to hold tickets for the new date, donate the cost of the ticket to PMSO or request a full refund.
PMSO Members, SAVE THE DATE: Thursday, November 19, 2020, at 5 pm. This is when we will hold our Pamlico Musical Society Annual Meeting via Zoom. Members will receive an invitation and link for the meeting via email a few days prior to the date. We will conduct our usual business, but no listening session this year since our 2021-22 season will be comprised of our 2020-21 artists. We will, however, play music and videos of some of those artists after the annual meeting is over.
Please know that it is our fervent hope and intention to bring you top quality, live music whenever we are able to do so, hopefully later this spring! In the meantime, stay safe, and we will be in touch.
Best,
Anne Manganaro
