MORROW, GA— After a year of video presentations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Spivey Hall has announced its return to live performances with the 2021-22 season, which includes the 30th anniversary celebration of the hall’s magnificent Albert Schweitzer Memorial Organ, custom made by Fratelli Ruffatti. The exceptional south-side metro-Atlanta venue’s 31st Spivey Series has been planned with the understanding that public health conditions may still change unexpectedly.
In presenting its hallmark wealth of great music performed by outstanding artists, departing executive & artistic director Samuel C. Dixon offers assurance that “nothing is more important than the health and safety of our audiences, artists, and staff. Spivey Hall is committed to making your concert experiences safe and gratifying.” Season 31 is Dixon’s final curation prior to his retirement in August.
While programs have always been subject to change for various reasons even under normal circumstances, Dixon emphasizes that the keyword is “Flexibility” for this new season, especially with regard to patron services. Spivey Hall will be offering a greater degree of ability for patrons to change plans easily.
