ACHF Arts Access
We aim to have a total of 1500 people attend the concerts planned for the season, and to perform with at least 10 new musicians who have never played with KSO before and engage at least 1 new performance venue. We also aim to attract new audience members and strive to provide performances that are technically well executed, as well as valued and enjoyed by the community. KSO performs an audience count of each concert, and maintains guest and member musician rosters. Dr. Ivan will review DVD recordings of the concerts for technical execution, and the KSO will also conduct an audience member demographic and informational survey during at least 1 concert during the season which will be reviewed by the organization to evaluate the quality of the concerts and audiences served. KSO will also conduct a musician survey to evaluate satisfaction by the artists regarding their experience with the orchestra.
Over 1300 people attended our concerts throughout the season described in the project, including members of the Carpatho-Rusyn community and people served by the Twin Cities Union Gospel Mission, who were not previously served by KSO. KSO partnered with eleven guest soloist musicians, of which more than half were new to KSO, along with many other ensemble musicians and singers new to KSO.
