This will include performances, masterclasses, rehearsals, and social gatherings that will be made available online in real-time or to be viewed later at your convenience.
The internationally acclaimed Hot Springs Music Festival (HSMF) returns this summer from June 7-11 after a one-year Co-Vid sabbatical.
