COVID-friendly concerts: German music festival tries out new concept
Organizers of the Rheingau Music Festival, slated to start in late June, have come up with new ideas to hold concerts keeping COVID-19 restrictions in mind.
Cellist Pablo Ferrandez has been a regular at the festival
For a year now, the Rheingau Music Festival organizers have been preparing for the 2021 season and not just musically. Exactly one year ago, the festival had to be canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Canceling for the second year running was out of the question, and so the organizers immediately began to work out how a festival could go ahead despite the pandemic.
