...facts are summed up in a new study prepared for the nation's top five orchestras-New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Cleveland and Chicago-by the management-consultant firm of McKinsey & Co. Because rocketing costs -most notably, sharply increased salary scales-have not been met by a similar gain in income, the orchestras' combined annual operating deficit rose from $2.9 million in 1964 to $5.7 million in 1968. The loss will soar to $8,000,000 by the 1971-72 season unless drastic steps are taken...
