London’s Royal Festival Hall Announces Fall Concert Season Featuring Nonwhite Composers (But No Audiences)

MUSIC Posted: September 3, 2020 5:05 am

“Classical music has long been criticised for being overwhelmingly white, but the Southbank Centre said its first post-lockdown season in the Royal Festival Hall would feature works by 16 composers of colour. … Musicians will be returning for the three-month series of concerts at the centre, but audiences will not. Instead the events will be streamed online and 10 of the concerts will be broadcast on [BBC] Radio 3.” – The Guardian
