Overview

Mission

Educational

What it reported doing in 2025

We facilitated live premieres of commissions by two living composers, hiring two local pianists and one local flutist in addition to creating a professional recording of Natalia Camargo's piece. This recording is available for free on our website to all visitors and provides students with a clear example of rhythms, tone, and expression in Camargo's piece, especially for students who learn by ear rather than reading music. The live premieres were free to attend for all community members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
