New contract sets pay rates for musicians, but not a guaranteed number of work weeks, ahead of 2023-24 season.
following decades of financial turmoil. In its final months, the musicians were on strike as part of a labor dispute with the Symphony Society of San Antonio, the nonprofit board that ran the orchestra.The Philharmonic began its first full concert season in September. It has included Pops and classical concerts as well as a Young People's Concerts series that reached more than 26,000 students across Bexar County.
The new contract will be in effect for the 2023-24 season, which starts this fall and will be structured similarly. Details are being hammered out for what that season will hold."The contract provides a greater amount of flexibility than the San Antonio Symphony CBA had," said Philharmonic bassoonist and president Brian Petkovich, who helped negotiate it."We’re basically hiring as needed, and the rates are good, but there is really not a guarantee of a certain number of weeks. ...
The musicians were represented in the negotiations by Petkovich; horn player Peter Rubins, who is the Philharmonic's vice president; and former city councilman Robert Treviño, who serves on the board.
