The deal must be ratified by the CSO board of trustees and the orchestra members in the Chicago Federation of Musicians.

Music director emeritus for life Riccardo Muti leads the CSO season-opening concert on Sept. 21 at Orchestra Hall and will take the orchestra to New York to open Carnegie Hall’s season on Oct. 4.
