Eastern Festival of Music to Return, with Gerard Schwarz on the Podium
In Tuesday’s (3/3) Musical America, Susan Elliott writes, “The Eastern Festival of Music (EFM), the reincarnated and refreshed version of the defunct Eastern Music Festival (EMF), is solidifying its place on the annual summer calendar by signing a new five-year contract with Gerard Schwarz, longtime music director of the EMF…. The new festival, under new board leadership, will continue the work of its predecessor, founded in 1961, on the same campus of Guilford College in Greensboro, NC. All 61 members of the EMF faculty will return; one of the issues that led to the demise of EMF was the planned trimming of faculty, which led its members to join the AFM. No word yet as to whether the union will be involved in the new event. John Shaw, representing the artist-faculty … noted that musicians have been involved in planning the new event and that three of them are on the new board of directors … The 2026 festival and school, the latter for musicians between age 14 and 24, will take place from June 27 to August 1, with orchestral and chamber music concerts by faculty and students, masterclasses, and special events.”

Since 1921, the Highfalls Fiddlers’ Convention has been part of the central North Carolina community, with people gathering for good food, fellowship, and most importantly, music. When COVID shut the event down, it looked like it might not return, but a rising NC State student and community member, Miranda Smith, picked up the baton to make sure the annual acoustic talent show survived. Saturday brought bluegrass musicians from across the state, and at least two neighboring states, to compete for the top prizes at North Moore High School in Robbins, NC.
