| The
Muscatine Symphony Orchestra, a major cultural asset of
the community, is totally dependent on the generosity of
donors to supply the means for continuation and growth.
Even though funding is sought from various entities including
local industries and businesses and State of Iowa grants,
ticket sales and promotions are vital. Individual
support remains the critical element. Individual contributions
constitute approximately 25% of the total funding needed
to operate the MSO; The vast majority of funding is required for compensation for our
Music Director, and the various supplemental players that are
needed throughout the concert season.
Muscatine
and the MSO are indeed most fortunate to have a person of
Brian’s skills and personality to lead the orchestra and
to serve as a resource for other performing arts organizations
in the community. Our being able to sponsor and provide
leadership for the Youth Symphony is, alone, a priceless
asset for aspiring musicians.
The local players,
numbering over 35, both practice and perform and join
you in financially supporting the orchestra. Though
the players are unpaid, they receive great value in having
the opportunity to develop their skills and present the
finest of symphonic music to you, the members of the community.
All contributions are appreciated and those giving over
$50 are recognized in the program notes. Please join us
in providing the financial means to continue making the
Muscatine Symphony Orchestra a vital part of our community.
Thank you!
