Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The entire season is offered free of charge in an effort to improve access to quality arts experience. Artists are encouraged to offer insights into the composers, pieces, and their own inspirations in interacting with the audience during intermissions and post-performance receptions.Rochester Chamber Music Society will measure in several ways, including an audience survey, recordings of each concert, analysis by the board, feedback from the artists themselves, and informal discussions with audience members.

Measurable Outcome(s)

RCMS gives professional musicians an opportunity to rehearse and perform exquisite music not often performed for the public, striving for the highest level of artistry in an ensemble setting.
