In short:
Pianist Jayson Gillham says he chose to play Witness at a Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (MSO) concert to “remind people” about the war in Gaza.
The MSO cancelled his next performance as a result of his comments, leading its musicians to pass a vote of no confidence in management on Friday.
What’s next?
The MSO intend to reschedule Gillham’s performance, with Gillham saying he hopes “to find a way forward”.
