An Economic Encore For Bellevue Philharmonic

Every music cliche could be used right now to describe--but we won't--the financial state of the ailing Bellevue Philharmonic, who was nearly forced to perform their very last show--for good. The donations were not coming in, forcing the hands of the philharmonic to seek any and all options that would prevent the loss of tradition and musical expression for the city. It was then, when the Bellevue City Council came forward, check in hand for $35,000 to help save the Bellevue Philharmonic, giving them a bailout another season of songs. This Sunday, the Bellevue Philharmonic will be playing their season finale concert and hoping that it really won't be their last.
