Upstate orchestras tune up finances amid comeback
Upstate orchestras show financial progress with debt cuts and rising pledges. In Buffalo the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra cut debt to 690000 and posted three straight surplus seasons, while Rochester’s RPO fights a 350000 deficit after a bold but mixed classics run. Executives say leaner operations and new music strategies aim to sustain growth and attract younger audiences.
