“When Sheldon Morgenstern established The Guilford Musical Arts Center, now Eastern Music Festival, in 1961 on the campus of Guilford College, he had one goal: to start a summer music camp where the study would be oriented towards the student, something he had not experienced at other such summer camps.
EMF’s founder Sheldon Morgenstern (1930 – 2007) moved to Greensboro as a young child.
