LETTER TO THE EDITOR: CSO remains gem of a cultural value
Cincinnati Enquirer, August 20, 2005
As chairman of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra Board, I thank The Enquirer for its continuing coverage of the CSO. "Fewer hear CSO, Pops" (Aug. 17) included recent statistics about the CSO, but behind the numbers is an orchestra at the top of its game artistically with one of the most important young conductors in the world - Paavo Järvi.
Although we strategically raised ticket prices recently, which caused some decline in subscriptions, we continue to provide the lowest average ticket price among America's leading symphony orchestras.
Our orchestra is fiscally sound and enjoys a positive image at home and abroad that raises the profile of our city. Cincinnatians can be proud of their cultural gem.
Rick Reynolds, chairman, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra Board
