Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Audience surveys will show that >50% of respondents plan to attend future band shell concerts. A survey of participants will show that the majority (>60%) experienced new musical challenges and growth in personal artistry. We will conduct audience surveys to evaluate programming and count as accurately as possible the number of people in the audiences. At the first fall rehearsal we will elicit feedback from all band members on their perspectives of the summer concert series and start to plan the next summer season.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We performed three of the four concerts envisioned in the original grant proposal (one rainout). Our musicians were challenged with eleven new (to the ensemble) pieces of music. Audiences of 60 to 130 people attended the band concerts.
