\nLOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, March 29, 2012 \u2013 The Louisville Orchestra Musicians
\nAssociation is pleased to announce that they have taken a very positive step in ending
\ntheir lockout, and returning the orchestra to a full schedule for the upcoming season.
\nConcerned with the health and long-term viability of the Louisville Orchestra, the
\nMusicians Association will agree to a binding process, where they and the Louisville
\nOrchestra Board of Directors sign a 1-year Bridge Agreement to end the lockout.
\nThe remaining musicians will return to work under the terms of the most recent
\nagreement, while a mutually agreeable orchestra consultant spends the next year
\nreviewing the Louisville Orchestra\u2019s operations, management, and member contracts. At
\nthe end of that year, the consultant will make binding recommendations.
\nThe musicians are seeking a meeting with the Louisville Orchestra Board of Directors to
\ndiscuss their proposal, resolve the lockout, and ensure a strong orchestra moving
\nforward.
