flag The Eastern Music Festival is ending after 64 years due to unresolved disputes with its faculty union.

flag The Eastern Music Festival, a 64-year-old summer program for young musicians founded in 1962, will dissolve after its board ended the organization following nearly two years of failed negotiations with its unionized faculty. flag The musicians sought greater control over staffing, management, and programming to preserve the festival’s educational model, while leadership argued that a fixed structure was unrealistic given the program’s evolving history. flag The festival, which hosted over 10,000 students from 40 countries, will transfer its remaining assets to other nonprofits.
