We on the Media Committee unanimously recommend its ratification.<\/p>\n<p>The AFM will use ElectionBuddy to facilitate the ratification process.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly, each AFM member of an EMA-signatory orchestra <em>(Note: see list below)<\/em> will receive a cover letter and a copy of the new IMA (showing changes from the previous agreement). These will be delivered electronically via email and text. Please check your spam and junk folders in case they mistakenly go there. You may vote either by email or text.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to give everyone advance notice in order to allow orchestras to meet with their members and committees to discuss the new IMA. Feel free to consult me if committee chairs have particular questions.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to thank AFM President Raymond Hair, Symphonic Services Director Rochelle Skolnick, Symphonic Electronic Media Director Debbie Newmark, attorney Patricia Polach, and the AFM and ROPA officers who assisted us. I would also like to thank the members of the ICSOM Media Committee for their extraordinary service and expertise during this and previous IMA negotiations. We would not have achieved such a successful outcome without the efforts of each and every one of them!<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: the author is the chairman of the ICSOM Electronic Media Committee as well as ICSOM president emeritus.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>List of EMA-signatory orchestras:<\/h4>\n<p>Akron Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nAlabama Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nAlbany Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nAllentown Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nAtlanta Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nAustin Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nBaltimore Symphony Orchestra, Inc.<br \/>\nBoston Lyric Opera<br \/>\nBoston Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nBuffalo Philharmonic Orchestra<br \/>\nCanton Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nChamber Orchestra of Philadelphia<br \/>\nCharlotte Symphony<br \/>\nChautauqua Symphony<br \/>\nChicago Sinfonietta<br \/>\nChicago Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nCincinnati Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nColorado Springs Philharmonic<br \/>\nDallas Opera, The<br \/>\nDallas Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nDayton Philharmonic\/Opera<br \/>\nDelaware Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nDes Moines Symphony<br \/>\nDetroit Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nEugene Symphony Association, Inc.<br \/>\nFlorida Orchestra<br \/>\nFort Wayne Philharmonic<br \/>\nFort Worth Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nFresno Philharmonic Orchestra<br \/>\nGlimmerglass Festival<br \/>\nGrand Rapids Symphony<br \/>\nGrant Park Music Festival<br \/>\nHandel and Haydn Society<br \/>\nHartford Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nHouston Grand Opera<br \/>\nHouston Symphony<br \/>\nIndianapolis Chamber Orchestra<br \/>\nIndianapolis Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nJacksonville Symphony<br \/>\nKalamazoo Symphony<br \/>\nKansas City Symphony<br \/>\nKnoxville Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nLansing Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nLexington Philharmonic<br \/>\nLos Angeles Chamber Orchestra<br \/>\nLos Angeles Opera<br \/>\nLos Angeles Philharmonic<br \/>\nMichigan Opera Theatre<br \/>\nMinnesota Opera<br \/>\nMinnesota Orchestra<br \/>\nMostly Mozart Festival Orchestra<br \/>\nNashville Symphony<br \/>\nNational Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nNew Haven Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nNew Jersey Symphony<br \/>\nNew West Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nNew York Philharmonic<br \/>\nNew York Pops, Inc.<br \/>\nNorth Carolina Symphony<br \/>\nOakland East Bay Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nOklahoma City Philharmonic<br \/>\nOmaha Symphony<br \/>\nOpera Company of Philadelphia<br \/>\nOrchestra Iowa<br \/>\nOregon Symphony<br \/>\nOrpheus Chamber Orchestra<br \/>\nPacific Symphony<br \/>\nPasadena Symphony and Pops<br \/>\nPhiladelphia Orchestra<br \/>\nPhilharmonia Baroque Orchestra<br \/>\nPhoenix Symphony<br \/>\nPittsburgh Opera<br \/>\nPittsburgh Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nReno Philharmonic Orchestra<br \/>\nRhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra<br \/>\nRichmond Symphony<br \/>\nRochester Philharmonic Orchestra<br \/>\nSacramento Philharmonic and Opera<br \/>\nSan Diego Symphony<br \/>\nSan Francisco Symphony<br \/>\nSanta Cruz Symphony<br \/>\nSanta Fe Opera, The<br \/>\nSanta Fe Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nSanta Rosa Symphony<br \/>\nSarasota Orchestra<br \/>\nSouth Bend Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nSpringfield Symphony<br \/>\nSt. Louis Symphony<br \/>\nStockton Symphony Association<br \/>\nTucson Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nUtah Symphony | Utah Opera<br \/>\nVirginia Symphony Orchestra<br \/>\nWashington National Opera<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On behalf of the ICSOM Electronic Media Committee, I am pleased to report that the AFM has recently concluded negotiations with the Employers\u2019 Media Association (EMA) on a successor Integrated Media Agreement (IMA), after many months of arduous and intense negotiations.
