Our fiscal year 2021 will end in June 2021. We will have had 0 concerts, minimal income, and some (though reduced) staff and supply expenses. During the remainder of the grant period (through calendar year 2021) we will have one set of September 11 Memorial concerts and one Cabaret. The above numbers include those two concerts, even though not within OUR fiscal year. Goal = have a season. We hope ticket sales will resume at prior levels: 100-150 per performance for the Memorial and 160 for Cabaret. We hope singers will return at pre-pandemic section levels or better. We are currently auditioning. We will include collaborative efforts in both planned concerts and our artistic director has maximized the worst year in Chorale history to network and build future opportunities.
