The orchestra and its players worked out a contract in April, when the pandemic was still new. Management says it then kept the musicians on full salary through the summer but, with no ticket revenue coming in, can no longer pay anything and so canceled the agreement entirely. The musicians union says it offered numerous times to make further changes — even suggesting a switch from salaries to per-service fees until a full concert schedule resumes — but that all such offers were rejected. – KOAA (Pueblo/Colorado Springs)
