The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra’s School of Music has banned a teacher who attended an illegal gathering of conspiracy theorists.

The schhool says John Stetch is being investigated for violating COVID-19 restrictions by attending an indoor gathering. Stetch featured in a video of the meeting, now taken down.

Stetch, originally from New York, is a jazz musician, nominated seven times for a Juno award. He has a vibrant trio and is a sought-after jazz teacher, whose services are retained and advertised by the VSO.
