Svetlanov Orchestra musicians are asked to dismiss the conductor

In an open letter sent on the eve of the Minister of Culture Alexander Avdeev, they are asked to remove Gorenstein with chief conductor and artistic director, citing the mass departure of the orchestra's leading musicians. Only in the last season (2010-2011) left the State Symphony Orchestra 60. As noted in the letter, "permanent fines, threats of dismissal and the rough treatment of the main conductor simply will not leave much choice." Ministry of Culture has not commented on the situation. The press-service agencies say that the first officials to meet with myself and Mark Borisovich hear his view. Tentatively the meeting will be held after August 26, when Mark Gorenstein end hospital. To work for health reasons conductor did not come out since the beginning of August.
