REMA Newsletter April 2020
Dear REMA friends,
It is all too clear that we are living exceptional, devastating, catastrophic times. From REMA’s network of networks, unions, and governmental entities emerges a terrifying picture for the future of live music around the world. And indeed, instead of meeting in Kraków during Misteria Paschalia, REMA members find themselves stuck at home, most of us in various states of lockdown. Cabin fever, anyone?

AEC News 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.
