Overview
Mission
To promote concert band music
What it reported doing in 2025
To perpetuate its tradition of live, high quality performance of music for the benefit, education and enjoyment of all people and to promote and demonstrate the continuing relevance of modern and traditional concert band music.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 91% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
