The players are their heroes. It's just delightful to hear the young people talk about their own hopes for their musical lives as adults--on stage, in schools or, like us, in the audience.
Music matters. Musicians matter. In our country and in our world. Let the members of the board of the CSO fulfill their stewardship to the organization by keeping the promise made to the musician members!

Pensions and benefits are a CRUCIAL part of keeping the most talented young people in the orchestra for many years. Without a comprehensive and competitive plan, many will NOT make the Chicago Symphony the final home of their careers and the legendary status of the orchestra will drop season by season.

I stand in solidarity with my colleagues and comrades of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
