Late Tuesday afternoon, musicians with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO), issued a news release announcing that they had accepted a collective bargaining agreement with ASO management.

The news release, issued by the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Players Association (ASOPA), says the agreement will run through September 2014.
