    Expenses $199,602 · Revenue $103,189

  • MUSIC EDUCATION PROGRAM: SCHOOL AND FAMILY CONCERT Series. We were delighted to continue our popular School and Family Concert series in January 2025, entertaining and educating fifth grade students from all area school districts and families from throughout the region. This series presented a lively introduction to the instruments and music of the orchestra, this year featuring "The Composer is Dead". We were thrilled to include Spanish translation provided by our guest conductor, Sebastian Serrano-Ayala; Spanish-speaking kids in the audiences were electrified! The Family concert was preceded by our Children's Music Fair with hands-on music activities and opportunities for families to talk with our musicians and see their instruments up close.

    Expenses $49,157 · Revenue $6,463

  • Chamber Music. Various chamber groups including string, brass and woodwind ensembles consisting of orchestra members performed at a variety of venues, further expanding our reach in the community.

    Expenses $6,438 · Revenue $3,071

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
