The Columbus Symphony and its musicians have reached a deal on a new three-year contract that takes effect next month.
The deal provides a 3 percent raise, and adds additional weeks of paid work to the upcomping 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons, resulting in 28 weeks of guaranteed work by the third year. The agreement extends access to employer group-health insurance over three years, continuing a benefit put in place in April. 47 musicians are affected.
