Five years ago, during our 90th season, the WSO was set to perform a concert centered around Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony. At the end of the rehearsal, we experienced something unprecedented: our Board President and Executive Director approached the stage and told us that we would need to cancel the concert out of concern for the unfolding health situation taking place around the country. What followed was a period of uncertainty and fear, the likes of which none of us had encountered in our lifetime. Along with the traumas, however, came a stronger sense of community for us all.
