In an interview, Philharmonic president and CEO Deborah Borda said that the orchestra has negotiated a new interim deal with its musicians: They will be paid in full until March 31, and then accept reduced pay for the next two months
Less than a week after the Metropolitan Opera canceled the remainder of its season and invoked force majeure to abridge its labor contracts, the New York Philharmonic has shut down, too, at least until the scheduled opening night of the 2020–21 season in September. . Health insurance and instrument insurance will continue through the remainder of the current contract, which expires September 20.
Like their peers at the Met, Philharmonic musicians are represented by Local 802 of the American Federation of Musicians. Colin Williams, who is the Philharmonic’s associate principal trombone and a member of the union’s players committee, told Vulture that musicians “are extremely grateful” to Borda, the board of directors, “and to everyone who has a responsibility to the organization that they have elected to help us weather, as an institution, this really difficult time.
Summertime layoffs were once a standard part of the musician’s life. But in the 1960s, when orchestras in many cities had evolved into year-round, civic institutions, unionized musicians won the right to be treated as full-time, salaried professionals, rather than players-for-hire. Today, fees for visiting artists and full-time musicians represent $26 million of the Philharmonic’s $87 million budget.
