Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Twelve live concerts will be performed. Approximately 33 members of the Honeywell Concert Band will participate in each of the performances, and rehearsals. Anticipated total attendance at the 12 concerts is approximately 1200. The project will be evaluated by recording the number of concerts performed, reviewing comments and other feedback from audience and family members, venue personnel, and Honeywell Concert Band director, and musicians. Additional evaluation of the project will involve a review by the Honeywell Concert Band Board and Membership, of the new music purchased for the project; the quantity and value of music purchased, and the degree to which this music satisfied the intended objectives for the target venues as well as for the Honeywell Concert Band.A count will be made of audience and participants at each performance. Notes will be made of post-performance comments from venues, attendees and participants.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Quantitative: Eleven concerts were performed at ten different venues, drawing a total of 1065 attendees, and involving approximately 33 artists per concert; Qualitative: Responses from audience and staff members at each venue expressed delight in the quality and variety in the performance of the Honeywell Concert Band. Staff members at care centers commented on how the spirits of specific residents were lifted.
