The Walt Wagner Trio, originally scheduled to perform April 4, has been rescheduled to June 5.
“The health of the Spokane community is our greatest concern at this time of tremendous uncertainty with the coronavirus. We take seriously the threat that large gatherings present, and want to do our part to participate in the community-wide effort to contain the spread of the virus,” said Spokane Symphony executive director Jeff vom Saal in a news release.
