Because many of our delegates, alternate delegates, guests and AFM and Local officers traveled such great distances, ICSOM invited attendees to both a welcome reception Tuesday evening in the hotel\u2019s London Grill that features a hidden wine cellar, and an end of conference event Saturday evening in the hotel\u2019s Crystal Ballroom.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Wednesday morning began with our traditional new delegate breakfast that also included a number of additional alternate delegates and orchestra members who were encouraged to attend this particular conference. This conference was Chairperson Keith Carrick\u2019s (Utah Symphony) first since assuming office, and much of the conference agenda was dedicated to internal organizing and a workshop on sexual abuse with the Rape, Abuse &amp; Incest National Network (RAINN).<\/p>\n<p>The general session began with orchestra roll call and introduction of guests. Welcoming remarks were given by Oregon Symphony ICSOM Delegate Zach Galatis, Local 99 President Dana Rokosny, Oregon Symphony Music Director David Danzmayr, and Oregon Symphony President and CEO Isaac Thompson. These remarks were followed by brief officer reports by Secretary Laura Ross (Nashville Symphony), Treasurer Peter de Boor (Kennedy Center Opera House Orchestra), and <i>Senza Sordino<\/i> Editor Mike Muszynski (Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra); a nominating committee report; a final address from President Paul Austin (Grand Rapids Symphony) who stepped down after the conference; and Keith Carrick\u2019s first address as chairperson of ICSOM.<\/p>\n<p>Since ICSOM is recognized as a player conference of the American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada, the AFM president or appointed International Executive Board (IEB) member in attendance is invited to speak to the conference. AFM President Tino Gagliardi\u2019s brief address included an invitation to the AFM\u2019s new Vice President from Canada Allistair Elliott\u2014appointed after the sudden death of Alan Willaert\u2014to offer some personal comments.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4160\" style=\"width: 1614px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4160\" class=\"wp-image-4160 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1604\" height=\"1250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836.jpg 1604w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836-300x234.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836-1024x798.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836-768x599.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_133827-scaled-e1730137886836-1536x1197.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1604px) 100vw, 1604px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4160\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AFM International President Tino Gagliardi addressed the attendees of the 62nd ICSOM Conference<br \/><span class=\"photocredit\">Photo Credit: Laura Ross<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Player Conferences Council leadership spoke in a panel discussion about issues their constituents face as regional and Canadian orchestra members, theater musicians, and recording musicians\u2014ICSOM members face similar issues, such as the use of recorded replacement technology (KeyComp) that has the potential to replace pit musicians and the RMA\u2019s campaign for legislation that assures that all musicians receive payments for their terrestrial radio broadcasts, something that is long overdue.<\/p>\n<p>Between general business of the conference, Sarina Roher, president of the Oregon Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals (OFNHP) and secretary-treasurer of the Oregon AFL-CIO shared her experiences in a presentation entitled \u201cOrganizing Victories: Lessons Learned from a Portland Union Leader.\u201d She touched on joining the union, advocating for herself and others, internal organizing, fighting for parity, and achieving a successful bargaining campaign; this was the first presentation during the conference tied to internal organizing and working on organizational culture change to make all our colleagues feel welcome in the workplace. The mixer that evening was hosted by Local 99 and was held at the Oregon Symphony\u2019s new event space.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4161\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4161\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4161\" src=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-1536x1038.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/20240821_193604-2048x1384.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4161\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Attendees enjoy the mixer at the Oregon Symphony&#8217;s downtown space.<br \/><span class=\"photocredit\">Photo Credit: Laura Ross<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Following roll call Thursday morning (to which delegates responded by naming the instrument they play in their orchestra), and another round of nominations, it was time for a presentation by ICSOM Counsel Kevin Case. He began by focusing on some of the pitfalls of individually negotiated overscale, before moving on to address discipline, sexual harassment, just-cause termination, and the responsibilities of the employer and obligations of the union when considering workplace safety. It is the employers\u2019 obligation under the law to provide a safe work environment, but there are obligations for the union as well, and assuring these are handled correctly will help determine how employees live with the results.<\/p>\n<p>Delegates broke into four groups by orchestra budget size during lunch for discussion and, upon their return, heard reports on ICSOM communications (including the ICSOM Directory), the AFM Symphony and Opera Strike Fund, ICSOM\u2019s online conductor evaluation program, and the Abe Torchinsky ICSOM Emeritus Program. This was followed by a presentation by Symphonic Services Division (SSD) Director Rochelle Skolnick entitled \u201cArtistry and Accommodation: Assisting Colleagues at the Intersection of Artistic Discipline and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)\u201d. She covered principles of artistic discipline and parameters of the ADA so committees and the union could help assist musicians seeking protections of the ADA, many of whom may be targeted for artistic dismissal without being provided possible accommodation to continue performing. She also walked through the history of artistic discipline and peer review, sharing some best practices for the peer review process. SSD ICSOM Wage Chart coordinator Laurence Hofmann then spoke about upcoming changes to the wage charts and the comparison portion of the site.<\/p>\n<p>After a break, attendees heard from Sarah Hughes from Labor Notes, whose presentation included a number of small-group discussions. She highlighted initial organizing strategies and ideas to consider when trying to beat employee apathy, a common reason people decline to get involved. Following dinner, delegates, alternate delegates, and the governing board returned for a closed town hall session.<\/p>\n<p>Friday morning began with a report by Florida Orchestra Delegate Anna Kate Mackle on current attempts by Eastern Music Festival faculty\u2014who voted to unionize\u2014to bargain their first collective bargaining agreement, followed by speeches to fill member-at-large positions. When Nicole Jordan (Philadelphia Orchestra) was elected as ICSOM\u2019s new president on Thursday afternoon, a one-year member-at-large position became available, in addition to the two existing, previously announced member-at-large positions. Laura Ross was also re-elected on Thursday afternoon as ICSOM secretary, a position she has held since 2002. Balloting for member-at-large positions occurred seven times throughout Friday; the final outcome was that Rebecca Matayoshi (Hawai\u2018i Symphony) and Sharon Yamada (New York Philharmonic) were elected to two-year terms and Jack Latta (Grand Rapids Symphony) was elected to the one-year term.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeating Bullying Bosses\u201d was the next Labor Notes presentation by Mark Brenner. He focused on \u201ccompany\u201d structure and talked about why a campaign to build community support can help achieve quicker action than waiting for resolution of an arbitration that may or may not lead to the desired outcome. In breakout groups, he encouraged attendees to hold one-on-one conversations in order to build their listening skills, and to build a fictional, escalating campaign of labor action that could inevitably end with a strike.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4162\" style=\"width: 1695px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4162\" class=\"wp-image-4162 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1685\" height=\"1220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896.jpeg 1685w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896-300x217.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896-1024x741.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896-768x556.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG_8004-scaled-e1730138117896-1536x1112.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1685px) 100vw, 1685px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4162\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mark Brenner presents a discussion of labor actions that can be taken by an organized labor unit<br \/><span class=\"photocredit\">Photo Credit: Mike Muszynski<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>As all ICSOM orchestras are assigned to one of four members-at-large who are in touch periodically with their delegates throughout the season, the luncheon Friday provided a chance for all the orchestra delegates and their respective member-at-large to gather together to discuss issues of importance to their orchestras.<\/p>\n<p>Jessica Schmidt, of Orchestrate Inclusion, attended the first couple days of the conference and incorporated many of the experiences shared in her presentation \u201cBuilding Belonging in Orchestra Settings.\u201d When speaking about DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion), a fourth category\u2014Belonging\u2014is now being addressed. Diversity is about representation, inclusion is about behavior, and belonging is a result of these two but is also about the importance of feeling welcome. She also examined power and identity dynamics, pointing out that this is life-long training, not just HR training, done so an orchestra can build a community where all individuals feel safe. Following this presentation, another closed town hall session was scheduled, while SSD staff, AFM and Local leaders had an opportunity to meet separately in another session.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday morning, once roll call (by the number of years delegates have served in their orchestras\u2014totaling 776.5 collective years of service from those responding), conference attendees were introduced to Jessica St. Germaine and Rebecca C\u00e1sarez from RAINN, who led delegates and guests through a three-hour workshop to understand the complexities of sexual misconduct, examining the factors that contribute to and influence understanding of what each<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>person may be going through. Videos demonstrating appropriate behavior and other issues were used\u2014one particularly moving video began with women reading letters describing abuse and the feelings that followed, before revealing that they were written by men, who were received with empathy by the women reading their letters.<\/p>\n<p>Many of our orchestras hold mandatory meetings about DEI and anti-harassment, yet too many are ineffective, mainly because the presentations feel like they are designed to check a box in order to fulfill the requirements of their liability insurance. Others complain that there is a failure to recognize that the orchestra\u2019s workplace is very different from that of the staff so programs should be designed with that reality. In assembling this presentation, RAINN surveyed participants and tailored the presentation; the ICSOM governing board scheduled this workshop to demonstrate that effective workshops and discussions that can help change the culture within our orchestras are available. Our employers are responsible for ensuring we have a safe workplace; the hope is that orchestra committees will encourage employers to look for more meaningful and helpful advice and training workshops.<\/p>\n<p>Following lunch, the final business of the conference was dealt with, including resolutions and bylaws amendments. To view a complete list of ICSOM Bylaw changes and adopted resolutions, follow this link.<\/p>\n<p>Site selection for future conference bids were offered along with good and welfare thanks and final comments from newly elected President Nicole Jordan, and ICSOM Chairperson Keith Carrick before the conference was adjourned. The 2025 conference will be hosted by the musicians of The Cleveland Orchestra and Local 4 in Cleveland OH.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4163 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized.jpg\" alt=\"The attendees of the 62nd annual ICSOM Conference at the Benson Hotel in Portland, OR&lt;br \\&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;photocredit&quot;&gt;Photo Credit: Rachel Hadiash&lt;\/span&gt;\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized-1024x699.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.icsom.org\/senzasordino\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/group-Rachel-Hadiashar_resized-1536x1049.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 62nd annual ICSOM Conference, hosted by the musicians of the Oregon Symphony and Local 99, took place August 21\u201324 at the historic Benson Portland Hotel in downtown Portland, OR.
