Minnesota Orchestra Finds a World Class Balance on Tour
Robert Jones, a former musicians union official turned Minnesota Orchestra general manager, says the ensemble is financially solid and in good health. Under Neville Marriner, the conductor, the 52 week season runs smoothly with careful logistics, advancing touring through Kansas, Michigan, Indiana, and Wisconsin venues to ensure a successful concert schedule. Marriner’s busy roles and precise leadership keep morale high as the orchestra performs Mozart, Wagner, and Borodin selections at KU’s Hoch Auditorium with ticketing through Murphy Hall.
