The San Antonio Philharmonic has cancelled its upcoming concerts scheduled for Oct. 18-19. This might be the consequence of the recent legal steps taken by a former Board member.
Ians dated Oct. 1 and signed by Execn a letter to musiciutive Director Roberto Treviño and Music Director Jeffrey Kahane, no alternate date for the concerts was given. Both say, the reason for the postponement is the “response to the financial impact and challenges that have arisen from a disinformation campaign.”
The letter says that this cancelation “will provide us with the essential time needed to navigate these issues effectively, raise the necessary capital, and work toward preserving the integrity of our entire season.
The two-year collective bargaining agreement reached with musicians in September allows for postponement and cancellation of concerts as needed, and that musicians are paid per concert as the performances occur.
