YSOECI cancels rehearsals & classes through May
In light of present health concerns regarding the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, the Youth Symphony Orchestras of East Central Indiana (YSOECI) will suspend rehearsals, classes, and concerts through the end of May. We are currently exploring options for online/virtual learning for our various programs, and we will be contacting students by ensemble as those online opportunities are ready to launch.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this challenging and unexpected situation. YSOECI will continue to monitor updates and recommendations from state, local, and federal leaders.
