AEC Newsletter March 2020
 
Dear colleagues and friends,
the coronavirus keeps everything in suspense, including the daily AEC business.
Long-planned events have to be cancelled or postponed, many institutions are closed and working hard on finding solutions to face the situation, and for many freelance musicians, corona has, in addition to all other aspects, serious economic consequences. We are in touch about this with political decision makers.

The AEC office wishes you all a lot of strength to get through these challenging times well and, above all, healthy. And don't forget to enjoy springtime, still optimistic that corona won't last longer as spring does.
Stefan Gies
AEC CEO
