Jeffrey Borenstein gives the welcome and Carol A. Tamminga moderates. The programme runs on 30 October from 09:30 to 12:30 EDT. Participants may attend at Kaufman Music Center, 129 West 67th Street, New York City, or virtually. Registration through the linked event portal requires an account and selection of attendance mode.
