In March of 2005 I chided the Atlanta Symphony for failing to divulge sufficient information about their programming on their website. I'm happy to report that the new site (a few months old, in fact) is much better, indeed positively exploding with information. Noteworthy is the fact that Altanta is eagerly promoting its new-music events rather than concealing them behind hedges of Tchaikovsky. Other energetic orchestra websites: Nashville (gearing up for a Glass at 70 celebration), Minnesota (the Beethoven is Back! promotion is amusing), Chicago (offering a download of "Bear Down, Chicago Bears" under the direction of the late Sir Georg Solti), San Francisco (currently holding a sale on remaining seats for the season), and Saint Louis (about to present a concert of Cage's Credo in US and Feldman's Samuel Beckett, Words and Music).
