The Honeywell Concert Band plans to perform 12 concerts at public parks, care centers and senior citizen complexes, entertaining a total of approximately 1200 people. Music performed will consist of a variety of styles, and will include a rich mix of new musical arrangements and compositions purchased specifically for this project. 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 the 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 the 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.
The 33 members of the Honeywell Concert Band played 12 concerts to audiences totaling 1325 people, slightly more than we anticipated. We engaged the musicians and audiences with 10 new numbers purchased for the project, and feedback from the venues was very positive, with each of them requesting we return again. Our musicians have indicated they are also happy with the music performed.
