ACMF FESTIVAL: ORGANIZES AND CONDUCTS ANNUAL SUMMER MUSIC FESTIVAL AND INSTITUTE IN ITALY. INSTITUTE CONSISTS OF INTENSIVE STUDY SESSION WHERE STUDENTS REGISTER AND PAY TUITION TO RECEIVE PRIVATE INSTRUCTION IN A FULL-IMMERSION FORMAT WHILE AT THE SAME TIME PARTICIPATING IN GROUP WORKSHOPS AND MASTER CLASSES. THE FESTIVAL TOOK PLACE EVERY YEAR SINCE 1997, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF 2020 AND 2021 WHEN THE COVID PANDEMIC FORCED CANCELLATION. AS EXPLAINED BELOW, IT WAS SUSPENDED FOR 2025. 0 0 In late 2024/early 2025 the Center of Musical Studies learned that certain facilities (rehearsal space, practice rooms, concert hall) critical to its successful operations, would no longer be available in its longtime location. Efforts to find a suitable short-term solution in the surrounding area were unproductive. In addition, costs had risen dramatically in that part of Italy. As a result, the major activity of CMS was temporarily suspended for the 2025 season. Instead, the organization committed itself to revising its mission. CMS officers invested their time and efforts in exploring and evaluating potential locations in Italy and France, among others. CMS officers also consulted with the board about adapting its activity in order to adjust to the new realities on the ground. The outcome thus far has been a shift to shorter, more limited programs targeted at a different demographic. In 2026 CMS has undertaken two short, highly focused programs in April and October of this year. These programs have garnered full attendance and been targeted at audiences that do not need the space required in the past. 0 5842 5842 LESLIE HYDE SECRETARY-TREASURER 30 47500 23342 0 ALEXANDER KATSNELSON PRESIDENT 30 27000 21553 0 ANDREW G HYDE BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0 0 0 KETTNER GRISWOLD BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0 0 0 DR FREDERICK MARSHALL BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0 0 0 PETER BARTON BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0 0 0 CORRINE WINBURNE BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0 0 0 X 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CENTER OF MUSICAL STUDIES 724 CHESAPEAKE AVENUE SILVER SPRING MD 209105206 3017877848 1 IT 1 IT 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 45825 839 1860 3318 0 51842 0 627236 573077 659801 3838 1863952 45825 628075 574937 663119 3838 1915794 1915794 19712 2796 40722 24308 4822 92360 19712 2796 40722 24308 4822 92360 4346 4346 65537 630871 615659 687427 13006 2012500 0.95195 0.94779 0.04589 0.05221 X Schedule A, Part III, Line 12 Reimbursements for unused airfare and other advance charges for services not required.
