The “Courageous” Stand of Atlanta Symphony Management | September 13, 2014 • Bargaining Notes
I mean, come on -- when Brian Urlacher retired, the management of the Chicago Bears didn’t “open a conversation” with its coach and players about whether or not to have a new middle linebacker.
That brings us to Romanstein’s depiction of his proposal as “courageous.” Putting aside the self-aggrandizement, how can it possibly be “courageous” to propose something that is utterly self-serving? There is nothing “courageous” about choosing to run an orchestra by cutting musicians, instead of focusing on imaginative and creative ways to continue providing Atlanta audiences with a dynamic, world-class ensemble. Quite the opposite: it represents nothing but capitulation and cowardice.
