Musicians of the Chicago Symphony posted this message last night:

Congrats to a great human being @marinalsop.conductor on her contract extension as Chief Conductor at @raviniafestival !!!
The @chicagosymphony musicians are looking forward to this summer, and also to Saturday night’s repeat performance of Barber, Rachmaninoff, and Elgar.
Can we see where this is heading?
Her own foundation issues this statement: Ravinia has just extended Marin Alsop’s contract as Chief Conductor for three years, through the summer of 2025. Renewing and growing her bond with Ravinia and the CSO, in the 2022 season Alsop is inaugurating the Breaking Barriers Festival, an annual series that celebrates the diverse artists and leaders helping classical music continue to grow its roots.
