New York City Ballet last night settled a long dispute with its orchestra musicians, agree to a 22 percent pay hike over three years.

Sounds like a good deal.

Musicians at London’s Royal Opera House also ended their dispute but no details whatsoever have been given. The musicians wanted a restoration of a ten percent pay cut they accepted during Covid. Did they get all of it?

All the MU will say is that they ‘accepted a significantly improved pay and conditions offer’. Sounds like No.
