悉尼交响乐团取消了30年来免费的音乐会, Sydney Symphony cancels 30-year-old free concert due to lost funding, sparking arts equity concerns.

悉尼交响乐团取消了30年的自由户外音乐会《星下交响曲》,因为资金没有保障。 The Sydney Symphony Orchestra has canceled its 30-year-old free outdoor concert, Symphony Under the Stars, due to unsecured funding. 这次活动在悉尼西部举行,旨在让公众广泛进入,并得到Parramatta理事会、悉尼节和大悉尼公园的支持。 The event, held in western Sydney and aimed at broad public access, was supported by Parramatta Council, Sydney Festival, and Greater Sydney Parklands. 该理事会在6月将资金转用于它直接管理的活动,悉尼节告诉管弦乐队,没有资金可供使用。 The council redirected funds in June toward events it directly manages, and the orchestra was told by Sydney Festival that funding was unavailable. 虽然乐团在资金有保障的情况下仍然可以重新安排时间, 但文化倡导者批评这项举动是该区域艺术公平的挫折。 Though the orchestra remains open to rescheduling if funds are secured, cultural advocates have criticized the move as a setback for arts equity in the region.
