The Southside Friends of Chicago Sinfonietta present “Summer Magic” | August 2020

by CMO / Tuesday, 04 August 2020 / Published in News & Press Releases, Recent Press

The Southside Friends of Chicago Sinfonietta presented Summer Magic: A Virtual Brunch on August 4, 2020 to help raise critical funds to support musician operations in the wake of the devastating impact of COVID-19.

The program was a success, providing much needed support for our musicians through general operating expenses with lively performances that celebrated the future of Chicago Sinfonietta.

Let us raise a virtual toast to Chicago Sinfonietta! Pictured: MLK Tribute Concert 2020

“Summer Magic: A Virtual Brunch kicked off at 11 a.m. Saturday morning. Many of those speaking on behalf of the Chicago Sinfonietta held a glass flute filled with a sparkling beverage, and by the end of the online event I expect that many of those listening raised their own glasses, or perhaps mugs of tea or coffee, in honor of the group’s achievements and the enjoyable performances from the musicians.” —Hyde Park Herald
