The musicians and management are at an impasse over a plan to slash the size of the orchestra and make 26 members part-timers. SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX Symphony Labor FairWages Texas

Members of the Musicians of the San Antonio Symphony and their supporters gather in front of the Tobin Center on Saturday.

During speeches at the Tobin Center gathering, Democratic congressional candidates Greg Casar and Jessica Cisneros, Democratic Bexar County judge candidates Peter Sakai and Ina Minjarez, and city council members Terri Castillo and Jalen McKee-Rodriguez called for fair wages and benefits for the musicians. Former San Antonio Mayor Phil Hardberger also delivered a written message of support.

In September, the orchestra's managing entity, the Symphony Society, proposed slashing the 72-member, full-time orchestra to 42 members, reducing pay across the board and jettisoning four unfilled positions. The remaining 26 members would become part-timers without benefits. Both the Symphony Society and MOSAS have remained at an impasse since the offer. Management ended the musicians’ healthcare benefits effective November 1, a move the union described as retaliatory and personal.
