Palm Beach Symphony 2021/22 Impact Report

21 22 IMPACT REPORT RECORD BREAKING YEAR • 100% increase in memberships and subscriptions • 72% increase in instrument donations • Highest attendance at all fundraising events

Letter from the Chief Executive Officer Dear Symphony Friends,

I

t’s been an incredible record-breaking year for Palm Beach Symphony. Audiences cheered our return to inperson concerts with tremendous enthusiasm. We were elated to welcome world-class soloists sponsored by our new Impresario Society. Our renowned Music Director Gerard Schwarz continues to achieve new heights of artistic excellence with the Symphony.

“Now entering its 48th season, the Palm Beach Symphony has become a powerhouse orchestra of great repute, enjoying enormous local support and commanding international attention.…

New York should be so lucky.” – Newsmax

What do I mean by record-breaking? After welcoming back audiences into the concert hall for the first time in 20 months, the total number of subscriptions and memberships grew by 100% from previous years. For the first time, all five Masterworks concerts were underwritten with funds from the Impresario Society. Nearly 400 guests enjoyed our 20th Anniversary Gala, surpassing attendance of all previous Galas, and our 5th Annual Holly Jolly Symphony Fête luncheon and Swings for Strings Golf Invitational were also sold-out.

Thanks to people like you, Palm Beach Symphony can continue to perform inspiring Masterworks concerts with the finest orchestral musicians in South Florida and deliver excellent community outreach programs for Palm Beach County. Families throughout South Florida enjoyed the second televised Sounds of the Season broadcast as we expanded our partnership with CBS12, which will debut our first televised Fourth of July concert this summer.

In the fall of 2021, the Symphony launched Eudora’s Fable: The Shoe Bird as part of the newly named Dale A. McNulty Children’s Concert Series to thousands of students in Palm Beach County. This collaboration of Emmy Award winners Gerard Schwarz, Habib Azar and Charlie Adler is set to educate thousands more throughout America via a partnership with PBS television broadcasting. With the introduction of the new Mary Hilem Taylor Music Scholarship Competition, Palm Beach Symphony has expanded our support of emerging musicians beyond high school with grant scholarships totaling $25,000 to three college students here in South Florida.

As board chairman, Peter Gottsegen took the helm this season with clarity, dedication, and excellent board governance. We welcomed five new board members: Cathleen Black, Richard Brekus, Marietta Muiña McNulty, Karen Rogers and Laurie Bay. The combined efforts of the growing board, staff, and volunteers will forge forward grand plans for a phenomenal celebratory 50th anniversary in the 2023-24 season.

As outlined in our impressive 2021-22 Season’s Impact Report, Palm Beach Symphony has experienced unprecedented growth directly due to the steadfast support of donors like you.

With deep appreciation,

David McClymont

OVERVIEW Record Breaking 48th Year Palm Beach Symphony, founded in 1974 as the first professional orchestra in Palm Beach County, only performing a few concerts each season with a part-time conductor and volunteer staff, has seen remarkable development, including new milestones in community outreach, music education, programming, and fundraising.

In its 48th season, the Symphony continues its strong momentum of growth under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer David McClymont. Music Director Gerard Schwarz is leading spirited performances of Masterworks concerts with an orchestra that reaches 90 players, the mark of a major symphony orchestra.

Recognized by The Cultural Council for Palm Beach County with a 2020 Muse Award for Outstanding Community Engagement, Palm Beach Symphony also continues to expand its education and community outreach programs. Children’s concerts, student coaching sessions and master-classes, instrument donations, and free public concerts have reached more than 56,000 students in recent years.

After more than a year of limited audience capacity, Palm Beach Symphony returned to in-person concerts and social events this season, attracting a greater number of members, subscribers, and single ticket buyers who greatly anticipated the Symphony’s blockbuster season of world-class concerts with celebrated and renowned artists.

“

“…now close to 90 players; the mark of a major symphony. But numbers are not enough to attract the likes of Midori, their playing must be of the highest standard, and this is true under the mentorship of Maestro Schwarz, he is able to get a very refined sound from the orchestra with a subtlety I’ve never experienced before. His command is extraordinary.”

Performances at the Kravis Center were crowd pleasers, with thousands attending in-person at Dreyfoos Hall. Live streams provided those who could not be there in person an opportunity to enjoy every moment. Our partnership with CBS 12 of Sinclair Broadcast Group continued hosting the Sounds of the Season holiday concert broadcast, which reached nearly 100,000 people.

We recently introduced a new membership group called the Impresario Society that plays a leading role in the Symphony’s efforts to deliver spirited Masterworks concerts with world-class guest artists. Through these patrons’ combined support, the Masterworks Season was completely underwritten, providing inspiring classical music performances by virtuoso soloists with first-rate orchestral musicians conducted under Maestro Gerard Schwarz’s baton.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit cultural arts organization, we are committed to enhancing the communities in which we perform. Palm Beach Symphony dedicates its efforts to expand its reach, bringing classical music to people of all ages, backgrounds, and life experiences.

ENGAGE

O

ur community outreach events serve as the cornerstone of our efforts to reach Palm Beach County’s broad and diverse community.

At Palm Beach Symphony, we believe in the power of music to create meaningful connections. That’s why we offer a variety of community outreach programs that allow us to engage with members of the community beyond our concert venue. From mini-concerts throughout Palm Beach County to memorable experiences in hospitals and awarding scholarship prizes to artists, we utilize the power of music to impact the lives of those we serve positively. As the season advanced, the Symphony engaged in many opportunities in collaboration with valued community partners – the Related Group, Cultural Council for Palm Beach County, Downtown Development Authority, West Palm Beach Arts and Entertainment District, Norton Museum of Art, Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach, Braman Motors, Lugano Diamonds, and Hospital for Special Surgery, just to name a few - allowing us to offer these excellent programs that vastly enrich our community.

Music, Maestros, and Masters On March 11, 2022, Palm Beach Symphony hosted an interactive panel discussion with leaders in sports, music, and health at the Benjamin School. These stars of very different walks of life discovered, experienced, and explored the non-obvious similarities in musculoskeletal performance between all these legends and the biomechanics of how we all can stay fit with the everyday challenges of today’s environment.

Panelists:

Gerard Schwarz, Palm Beach Symphony Music Director Claudio Jaffé, Palm Beach Symphony Principal Cellist John Evenson, CBS 12 News Paul DeJong, St. Louis Cardinals Ryan W. Simovitch, Hospital for Special Surgery

Dale A. McNulty Children’s Concert Series Eudora’s Fable: THE SHOE BIRD

I

n the fall of 2021, Palm Beach Symphony presented Eudora’s Fable: The Shoe Bird, based on Eudora Welty’s book The Shoe Bird, collaborating with the Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County and the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches. Over 5,000 students attended the production virtually, some of which also participated in pre- and post-concert workshops that focused on social and emotional well-being, literacy, visual art, and environmental science.

The adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning children’s book was offered free to teachers for their students between November 1-30th and as a free family concert at the Eissey Campus Theater on October 24th. Under the direction of Music Director Gerard Schwarz, a 20-voice choir with members from the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches joined the Symphony and Charlie Adler, an Emmy Awardwinning voice actor, who served as narrator amidst a setting of visual art on stage that was especially commissioned by Ed McGowin for this performance.

The production of the musical fable, filmed by a multiple Emmy Award-winning American director, will reach thousands more students and families nationally through a collaboration with PBS broadcasting.
