Flowers without Borders Stage

Flowers without Borders Stage

A unique component of ClarinetFest® 2021 is the Flowers without Borders Stage, designed to feature performances that subscribe to the event theme. The membership was asked to explore opportunities to affect positive change across borders, cultures and societal divisions as the basis for proposals. This virtual stage will feature a wide variety of recitals, each named after a native wildflower.
