| Professional Orchestras |
Morag |

Two years ago I resigned as a musician in a semi-professional orchestra. Occasionally I fill in when they need extra people, if I am available. I didn't realize it when I was a member, but regular members make exactly half the pay that outsiders and temporary fill-ins do. Instead of a cheque for $175, which was the norm for me as a regular member, I received $350 for playing this Christmas concert. A flautist friend of mine receives $280 when she plays, and her fill-in gets $560. Is this legal? Do professional orchestras operate this way? What is the reasoning? The only answer I get when I ask is, "That's just the way it is." No speculation, please. I want to know what other orchestras do. |

Then why are you asking this in the Digital Cameras category? You should be using the Music and Careers categories.
Hope this helps,

Oops, that was a mistake. I didn't read the category. Something popped up on the screen saying I should ask a question. Thanks for pointing it out. It does help, of course!
Earlier I wanted to ask a question about video cameras, but there was no category that fit. I tapped into Digital cameras and then changed my mind. That must be why it came up next time I was on the site.
