The Detroit Symphony Orchestra has announced further changes to its upcoming schedule through Sunday, June 21, due to restrictions on gatherings and events as recommended by the State of Michigan, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and public health officials to help reduce the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). The DSO had previously cancelled or rescheduled concerts through May 10.
The cancellations include the remaining concerts in the 2019-2020 Classical and PNC Pops series, as well as the annual Heroes Gala and Benefit Concert on June 20. The DSO, together with our partners, continues to assess the possibility of offering popular summer programming – including performances at Greenfield Village and Edsel and Eleanor Ford House – and will carefully monitor the public health situation and make decisions based on the safety and comfort of patrons, musicians, and staff.
