EMERGING FROM THE PANDEMIC Resilience and Creativity on Display
The pandemic catalysed resilience, creativity, and discipline in the Interlochen community.
The constraints of safety protocols deepened our creative capacity. Students stretched their creative muscles to make art in new ways: actors and dancers found new methods to express intimacy and connection without physically touching; musicians mastered new repertoire for smaller ensembles; and visual artists and writers illuminated this moment in history through their works.
CAMP 2020: A CREATIVE PIVOT
The 93rd Interlochen Arts Camp made history as faculty and staff created Interlochen Online and provided students with a quality, Camp-like virtual programming. Due to Interlochen Online’s success, it became a permanent part of our offerings, complementing Camp and Academy and broadening Interlochen’s reach and accessibility worldwide. A TRULY VIRTUAL SUCCESS: LES PRELUDES With more than 30 hours of preparation by staff from Interlochen Presents and our IT department, the 93rd "Les Préludes" was performed virtually. Under the direction of Cristian Macelaru, artistic director and principal conductor of Interlochen’s World Youth Symphony, over 200 students recorded their parts from home and their playing was blended together into a beautiful, seamless recording.
