Like many strikes, the ominous signals of anti-unionism preceded it. Hiring slowdowns. Notes that the orchestra needed to 'slim down' and 'change the business model.' Shifts in attitude toward the musicians themselves. What came to pass was a struggle for the very identity of an orchestra that had been at the heart of the Minnesota arts scene since it was founded in 1903. But the musicians didn't feel despair-they felt defiance. And Twin Cities music lovers were ready to defend the orchestra alongside them. A powerful depiction of a defining moment in Minnesota music, Defying the Silence shares how the Minnesota Orchestra went from a sixteen-month struggle to winning hard-fought contract negotiations-and even winner of Gramophone 2021 Orchestra of the Year."--Amazon.com 500 $a Includes appendices. 505 0 $a Foreward -- Preface -- Pre-lockout chronology -- Standing together, unified in defiance -- Support and genoristy -- A community grassroots movement -- Defying the silence -- Recovery and rebuilding -- Global pandemic. 610 20 $a Minnesota Orchestra $x History. 650 0 $a Symphony orchestras $z Minneapolis $z Minneapolis $x History. 650 0 $a Strikes and lockouts $z Minneapolis. $z Minneapolis. 650 0 $a Labor laws and legislation $z Minnesota. 650 0 $a COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- $x Economic aspects $z Minnesota. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000519 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217011410.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=53E61B76CD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
