The Baltimore Symphony musicians and board members held a press conference on Monday to announce agreement on a one-year contract. The contract is a compromise, with the orchestra members receiving a 2.4% wage increase, with an additional $1.6 million bonus fund which will be split among the musicians.
It was further announced a short time ago that the board chair, Barbara Bozzuto, has been replaced. It remains to be seen whether there will be other casualties.
The BSO will open its season tonight at Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, with Marin Alsop conducting. On the program, Verdi's overture La forza del destino Overture, Tchaikovsky's Symphony no. 4, and a piece by composer Christopher Rouse who passed away earlier this week at the age of 70.
