Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The goals of a Copper Street Brass Quintet residency are to: 1. Provide youth with the skills and tools to take music outside of the classroom and past the printed page. 2. Instill in young people an abiding love of music that results in lifelong engagement on many levels; playing, attending concerts, supporting the arts and teaching. 3. Provide a chance for community members to experience live, professional instrumental music. We will evaluate the residency in three ways: 1) in-class responses and observed engagement from my students, 2) online surveys (hosted by The Copper Street Brass Quintet) for school faculty/staff, parents, students, and community members upon the residency’s culmination and 3) attendance numbers at the capstone concert.
