The Omaha Symphony Musicians Organization and its union recently ratified a new three-year contract with the Omaha Symphony that includes annual raises of 5%, 8.5% and 3.25%.
It runs from July 1 through June 30, 2028.
It also includes a yearly $1,000 Electronic Media Guarantee, which will allow the orchestra to expand its television offerings and community outreach so more people can hear and see the symphony, said Jennifer Boomgaarden Daoud, the symphony’s president and CEO.
Previous concerts have been broadcast on WOWT-TV in Omaha and Nebraska Public Media, as well as online.
