The Midday activity
The Midday seems to be on pause right now, since no episode has been published for 3 months. The last episode in The Midday, "Madison Symphony Performs Mendelssohn Violin Concerto", is dated 2020-03-05.
"On pause" does not mean, however, that The Midday will not resume its activity soon, nor that its episodes are less interesting than another more active source.
This editorial activity is no different from that recorded for the previous period.
