Oh no... if you don't mind, can you elaborate on that? Is it tthe
solr.TextField type we're using that's causing this?
I'm very new to solr and I haven't seen this in the documentation.
Thank you,

Your field type eats/removes parentheses - so there's no way to search for
them.
Adjustments will need to be made one way or another to get parentheses
indexed and queried.
