Dear SDEMS Members and Patrons,
We regret to inform you that because of current guidelines by the California Department of Public Health and the San Diego County Health & Human Services, the SDEMS concert by Stile Antico, originally scheduled for April 26, 2020, has been cancelled. We are hoping to have Stile Antico on our roster of concerts for next season and we are currently working with the group to make this happen.
Meanwhile, patrons who purchased tickets for Stile Antico for the 2019-20 season may (1) donate the price of the tickets to SDEMS as a charitable donation, or (2) get a refund of the price paid.
Please let us know what you would like to do with your tickets by April 15, 2020. If we do not hear from you by then, we will assume you would prefer a refund. Please email us at sdems@sdems.org or call us at (619) 291-8246 if you wish to make a donation.
We will keep you informed about the status of the English Concert performance scheduled for May 9, and the rescheduled Pine/Vinikour concert on June 7 as the situation with COVID-19 continues to evolve.
We want to thank you for your continued support of the San Diego Early Music Society during this uncertain time. We hope you all stay safe and well, and we look forward to the day when we can reunite to listen to the best artists in early music.
Best regards,
Greta Treadgold
SDEMS Board President

Dear SDEMS Members and Patrons,
As I'm sure you know, to assist with the prevention of COVID-19 transmission, California public health officials and Governor Gavin Newsom's office issued a statewide policy which advises that gatherings larger than 250 people should be cancelled or postponed until at least the end of March.
Additionally, the Country of San Diego banned all gatherings of more than 250 people for the rest of the month of March. In order to comply with these restrictions, the San Diego Early Music Society has decided to postpone our next concert, currently scheduled for 3 pm, Sunday, March 29 at Cuyamaca College, to 3 pm on Sunday, June 7th.
If you have already purchased tickets for this concert, you can hold on to your tickets, and use them for the same seats on June 7. If this date is inconvenient, (1) you can donate your tickets to SDEMS, and we can issue you a tax donation letter for their value, or (2) we will issue you a refund.
If you do not wish to hold on to your tickets and attend the rescheduled concert, please let us know which of the other two options you wish to elect by sending us an email at sdems@sdems.org or by calling (619) 291-8246.
We will be closely monitoring the situation regarding the rest of our concerts this season, and will keep you posted.
Meanwhile, we hope you stay well, continue to practice virus transmission prevention techniques, and be guided by the recommendations of government agencies and public health officials, including the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), California Department of Public Health, and San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency.
Best regards,
