Things have turned downright nasty behind the scenes at the Seattle Symphony. The renewal of music director Gerard Schwarz’s contract caused some initial internal grumblings, including a survey conducted by orchestra members that was critical of Schwarz. Now someone is sabotaging orchestra members who are Schwarz supportors. The main victim is the principal horn player who has had his car keyed, his horn dented, a razor blade and hot coffee placed in his orchestra mailbox, and threatening phone calls at home. These acts will only fuel the discontent already present amongst the musicians. Schwarz has overwhelming support from the board of trustees. The musicians’ lack of power is unlikely to change if they employ such immature behavior.
