The Earle Brown Music Foundation (EBMF) regrets to announce the cancellation of  TIME:SPANS 2020, originally scheduled for August 9-20 at the DiMenna Center for Classical Music in New York City. TIME:SPANS will not present any public events in 2020, but instead will either produce video and audio recordings or postpone concerts to 2021. The schedule of video and audio recordings will be announced soon.

The Bozzini Quartet (Montreal) and soprano Juliet Fraser will create videos remotely; Sō Percussion (NYC), International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE) (NYC), Yarn/Wire (NYC), and JACK Quartet (NYC), will record videos during the original schedule of the festival. All videos will be released on the www.timespans.org website. Concerts by Alarm Will Sound, Talea Ensemble, Spektral Quartet, and the performance of Taylor Brook’s live Virtutes Occultae will be postponed to TIME:SPANS 2021.
