(There's an article in the Baltimore Sun, but it probably will be blocked.)

It's always jarring to see how little really good classical players make......

Glad an agreement was reached....but only one year?

I am glad this is over for now. In general collective bargaining parlance (kind of old school) the union will offer a 1 year deal and the management will offer a long term deal. Longer term deals insure labor piece and the ability to plan.

The union offers a one year deal as a way of leveraging management to "buy" a longer term. It looks like management did not want to pay for a longer deal. So the cannons are still booming like the end of the 1812!

Gordon Stump, old union president (retired, thank god)
