While most of the world's festivals, concert houses and theaters have gone silent this summer, the Sun Valley Music Festival will showcase no less than 14 concerts beginning Monday, July 27.
The series will feature some of the planet's best musicians, performing in-sync from 43 cities across North America. All of the concerts are free, and will allow approximately 1,000 socially-distanced attendees on the great lawn of the Sun Valley Pavilion while thousands more view, simultaneously, on line.
Festival Executive Director Derek Dean and Music Director Alasdair Neale visited with Morning Edition host George Prentice to talk about their unprecedented undertaking and how they have adapted to COVID-19.
