On Thursday, March 13, the Library of Congress closed all Library buildings to the public. Within a few days, all public events in March and April were canceled. These cancellations are a measure of caution to promote social distancing and to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The events affected include:

  • March 17, Takács Quartet
  • March 18, Tabea Zimmerman and Javier Perianes
  • March 28, “Manuscript Music for Men’s Chorus”
  • March 31, “Japanese American Influence in Appalachian Spring”

  • April 25, “The Beethoven Complex”
  • May 1, Flux Quartet with Oliver Lake & Donal Fox
  • May 2, Flux Quartet with Donal Fox
  • May 8, International Contemporary Ensemble

The Concert Office will attempt to reschedule performances subject to artist and space availability.

We have received inquiries about presenting our concerts via webcast. We are unable to implement that option because many of our artists are restricted from traveling to our location. 

To promote social distancing within the Library, Concert Office staff, as well as many other Music Division staff, are teleworking; therefore, if you need to reach the office, please contact us by email at concerts@loc.gov.

Do you need ideas on how to cope with social distancing? We have a few suggestions for your consideration. This is the perfect time to visit our YouTube channel and revive some of your favorite performances of Concerts from the Library of Congress. You can visit our YouTube channel here. In addition, please visit and learn more about our online music collections. You can visit our online collections here Digital Music Collections. Lastly, on March 29, you can watch the PBS premiere of the 2020 Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song Concert celebrating Garth Brooks. Here is the link 2020 Gershwin Prize for Popular Song.

We want to send a heartfelt thank you to all our fellow artists and patrons for their support and understanding of the current situation. We want to reassure you that Concerts from the Library of Congress cares for the safety of all its patrons, artists, and staff. We wish all of you health, and we hope that soon we will be able to go back to our normal operations.
