Live orchestra returns to Atlanta ballet

The longest continually-running ballet company in the country is getting its live orchestra back. The Atlanta Ballet has had recorded music for the last two years to save money. Three trustees have donated a $200,000 gift to pay for the orchestra, and $50,000 to sponsor a conductor. The Atlanta Ballet was founded in 1929. Its season opens Oct. 23 with Swan Lake.
