The orchestra has reported a $650,000 deficit for the past year, which included the end of the lockout and a scrambled-together concert season. It has been expecting losses of $1m.

The orch has received a $10 million gift from an anonymous philanthropist and $3.2m from three other friends. Details here.

    You might want to amend that headline to indicate that it refers to the orchestra’s financial position, not their ability to play.

  • Russell Platt says:

    I concur.
