i go see them perform whenever i can, usually 3x / year, and i am old enough to remember the last time Orchestra Hall was abandoned.
i've read more into this whole issue and it seems more and more like yet another insidious management attempt at knocking labor down a few pegs...with the result being the eradication of the 100yr-old, world-class DSO.
Do DSO players need to make some concessions? they could probably afford to make a few. but thats not all that's going on here. as both a musician and someone who just lost his job at AT&T to a BS 2-tiered system of labor, i am going to go down there and show my support.
