San Antonio Philharmonic Cancels Remainder of Season
By Francisco SalazarThe San Antonio Philharmonic has canceled the remainder of the season.
The news was announced through an email to its musicians.
In the message obtained by the San Antonio Current, CEO Roberto Treviño wrote, “As part of the broader reconfiguration of our season, we will unfortunately need to cancel the remaining concerts as originally planned.”
He added, “We sincerely apologize for the impact this decision has on you. We understand that this news will bring frustration, concern, and many questions. Please know that this decision was not made lightly. The staff is working every day with great care and urgency to help the organization navigate this challenging period and move toward stability.”
The news comes days after Jeffrey Kahane has stepped down as Music Director of the San Antonio Philharmonic. At the time, the conductor said, “I’m deeply grateful for the musical experiences I’ve had with the San Antonio Philharmonic and to the community of music lovers in this wonderful city that I have come to love so much. Every distinguished guest artist and artistic partner who has worked with the Philharmonic will attest to the power, skill, and beauty of the orchestra’s playing. The archival recordings of our concerts will stand as a lasting testament to the extraordinarily high level of artistic achievement the San Antonio Philharmonic has come to represent.”
