Re: Baltimore Symphony clarinet auditions...

I retired from the BSO 6 years and yes, they cancelled the summer season. The musicians and management have been in contract negotiations for a year now and after announcing the new summer season a few weeks ago the management just cancelled it. Management wants to shorten the season from 52 to 40 weeks so apparently they just did that. I Just asked a friend, bassoon player, if the auditions will still proceed as scheduled, he said he doesn't know. Everything is in flux right now since this all just happened on Thursday without notice between a rehearsal and a concert. They have two weeks left to play, Mahlers 9 this next week and West Side Story with the movie the week after. I'll try to find out if I can and post it but no one may know right now. It's pretty upsetting to the musicians if you can imagine.
