...deal here. And no, I'm not "ICSOM", just a working musician like yourself. On a thread below, some people were speculating on orchestra salaries, and who was over and underpaid. MY personal conclusion is that none are overpaid, and many are horribly underpaid. For example, I can't imagine trying to live in Honolulu on $28,000 a year. In posting the information, I got the list from the AFM website, which for some reason, does not presently have information on the St. Louis Symphony. I'm sorry that I didn't notice the omission. You guys are among the hardest hit (that are still standing...let's see what tales Jay Bertolet has to tell after tomorrow), and I hope you're back to 52 weeks very soon.

ps (from April's Senza Sordino: St. Louis Symphony $68,730 for 42 weeks)
