Philip Glass Cancels Kennedy Center Show | Values Clash

Notably, The National Symphony Orchestra has decided to remain at the embattled Center.

“We are going to make this work,” Joan Bialek, the chair of the National Symphony Orchestra board, said last week, according to The New York Times. “Our biggest challenge now is to try to get more people back into the concert hall. We’re working hard on that.”

The cancelation of a major premiere by Glass is sure to make that task more difficult.
