The unions of the Philharmonic Orchestra of the French Radio in Paris have called a second strike for next Friday. The first strike led to the cancellation of last Friday’s concert at Pleyel, and now the next performance is likely to be canceled too. The orchestra musicians protest the dismissing of their artistic director Eric Montalbetti and the plans to merge the management of their orchestra with the one of the ‘Orchestre National de France’, the second radio orchestra in Paris.
