The Sphinx Organization - Year in Review 2019-2020

A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT

Dear Sphinx La Familia,

As I reflect on our year together, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and admiration toward our artists and the greater community.

We are humbled to witness a moment in history when our vision for a more just, equitable field is being realized through collaboration with more than 70 orchestras, more than 20 music schools, and 100 partner organizations across the country.


Record-high participation in Sphinx’s programs reflects that our collective voices are continuing to gain momentum: our global convening, SphinxConnect, welcomed more than 800 delegates, our premiere ensembles have expanded their touring to a year-round season, while our educational programs continue to experience profound growth in demand.


We have witnessed the ripple effect that comes from providing the tools and resources to empower students, musicians, and arts leaders around the world. Generations of our alumni are building their own ventures and networks, propelling the dream of artistic excellence through inclusion, breaking down barriers and stereotypes, while actively leading the way toward a more equitable, reflective future landscape.


Together with our diverse and far-reaching community, we are proud to lead the movement that is changing the face of our field and society as a whole. We hope that you will join us in the charge to champion the next generation of artists and leaders, who will define the future of our artform.

Afa Dworkin
President and Artistic Director
