There is an interesting editorial in this weeks "City Beat" entitled "Rehabbed Emery Theatre Offers Sighs Over Size" by Naomi Lewin. It makes a strong case for the rehabbing of this valuable community asset. I don't know what happened to cause the wheels to fall of efforts to rehab in the past. If the money that has been given by unnamed donors to covering the staggering millions of dollars of losses the CSO has generated over the recent years for a variety of reasons had been directed to rehabbing this venue....we'll it just gets you thinking doesn't it?
Let's see--we'd have a great hall but no orchestra?
If the Symphony keeps getting bailed out with no change to stop the flow of red ink I guess you're right. The marketplace has spoken then. I think I would still take the rehabbed Emery Adutorium and bring in touring "world class" orchestras. You know like the CSO does when it tours. The way things have been going for the last several years...really the last decade...I'll take my chances if given the choice.
Except,if you're following the world-wide state of these affairs, those other "world class" orchestras are also getting bailed out. So, all things being equal, if we stop supporting the arts here they'll stop supporting the arts there and they'll be no "world class" orchestras to invite. But fear not you elit-i-phobes and fearers of the arts...we'll still have cross-dressers night or Elvis Meets Beethovan night with Northern Kentucky Symphony or some such organization.
Many interesting comments on all the blogs, but they seem to keep circling back to the same thing. Symphonies loose money and are in danger why is that and what can be done?
we'll still have cross-dressers night or Elvis Meets Beethovan night with Northern Kentucky Symphony or some such organization.

speaking of world class....tres classy closed minded comment.
Just what our arts scene needs...
My goodness, I couldn't agree with the previous post more. I mean not only are some of my best friends cross-dressers but they're women that dress as Elvis.
