Last summer, festival stages went dark due to the coronavirus pandemic. This year is expected to be the return of live music. And local arts programmers are figuring out how to meet this historic moment. We suffered a year of loneliness and isolation and loss. We were worried about the health of our children, our family, our parents, and we were not spending time with our friends, says Jay Wahl, executive director of Flynn Center in Burlington, which runs the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival.
