Admission prices to philharmonic concerts are going to be more expensive due
to raising energy and heating costs. This news made the audience speak up. Some listeners declared they would stay in their winter coats during
the performance to avoid the costs of heating the concert hall and lobby. Other
listeners, such as Timothy,
say they are ready to listen to the music from an iPod, on the web, CD,
radio or TV. An accountant Christian took
advice from a computer specialist Brian, and
together, they searched for solutions to bring about an improvement in the
institute's economy. “We have to find ways to lower energy consumption
and service costs to avoid extravagant expenditure without raising ticket
prices»,
Brian said. Otherwise, we will have to stand up after everything the musicians
play and clap vigorously just to morally justify the 60 dollars every
patron spent on a single ticket.”
