Keeping Regional Orchestras Vibrant

The New Hampshire Symphony Orchestra has cancelled the rest of its season for financial reasons. The move raises critical questions about how arts organizations keep afloat at a time when competition for peoples' entertainment dollars is fierce. Tonight on the Front Porch we're going to look at the state of regional orchestras and how these groups work to evolve with the times.

Our guests are:

Keith Powers, music critic for the Boston Herald and author of the book Making Music Matter: The Resurgence of the New Bedford Symphony Orchestra.

Paul Hoffman, Executive Director of the New Hampshire Philharmonic.
