Janelle, Will the CSO ever return to play Symphonies by the old masters? As someone said all music was once new. I and my wife feel the CSO is playing to a different audience and when we look at this seasons programs, they are not for us. We stopped our donations 2 years ago and feel the CSO has left us.
