We will consider our project a success if participants and audience members exceed 2,000 people. Another success would be for feedback (surveys, conversations, and other communications) to show that our concerts helped the majority of our audience and our musicians to better understand and/or appreciate the connections we make between the new and/or unfamiliar music we present and music from the standard repertoire. We will count the number of attendees and observe the number of them interacting with the musicians, composers, soloists, and music director. We will get post performance feedback from musician surveys and audience surveys, as well as direct conversations and e-mail communications with our audience, musicians and partner organizations.
Approximately 1350 people attended four concert performances at which about 90 artists participated. Our audience feedback (surveys, conversations, notes, hands in the air, emails, etc.) showed that 10-15% of the audience was seeing a full symphony orchestra for the first time, and all feedback was positive as to the linking of new works with more familiar pieces.
