FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/p>\n

Columbus Symphony Musicians Vote To Allow Live
\nRecording<\/p>\n

Next week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Columbus Symphony Orchestra program will be recorded live for the international recording company Denon, which will release it on compact disc. At the personal request of Music Director Junichi Hirokami, the Musicians voted to allow this recording under a new national recording agreement which allows live recordings to be produced for a tenth of what a normal studio recording of the same program would cost.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Although the Musicians will be paid far less than usual for this recording, we want to memorialize the artistic summit achieved by the CSO, which has taken decades to reach, before it may be destroyed next season by controlling members of the CSO Board and Executive Director Tony Beadle, who are publicly advocating the firing of 22 Musicians at the end of this summer\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, said Douglas Fisher, a member of the orchestra and President of the Central Ohio Federation of Musicians, the Musician\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Union.<\/p>\n

Most of the recording expenses will be personally underwritten by former CSO Board Chair Gene D\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Angelo. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We are most grateful to Gene for his long standing support of the CSO\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, said Jim Akins, Chair of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra Committee, which represents the Musicians. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Gene personifies the high degree of passion and commitment for the orchestra that the present leadership lacks, and which is so desperately needed.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

The CSO will record Symphony No. 5 and the Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture by Peter Tchaikovsky for the Denon release. George Gershwin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Rhapsody in Blue will also be recorded for possible release in the future.<\/p>\n
