DescSeverance Hall and Northeast Ohio2017-18 was The Cleveland Orchestra's 100th season and Franz Welser-Most's sixteenth year as music director. Highlights included encore performances of Janacek's opera The Cunning Little Vixen, first presented in 2014; this innovative production once again juxtaposed live singers with time-lapsed video imagery and was also presented to acclaim on tour in Vienna, the first time a fully-staged opera had been performed in Vienna's premiere concert hall, the Musikverein. Also opening the season was a special multi-media Education Concert created in collaboration with Cleveland's School of the Arts; that six-month project was tied directly to Franz Welser-Most's season-ending "Prometheus Project" concerts, which explored Beethoven's music as commentary and impetus in advocating for justice and human good tying together regular season programming and education offerings to amplify learning opportunities and connections between the arts and everyday life.For the Centennial, Welser-Most had long advocated that, rather than merely celebrating the Orchestra's illustrious history, the season should focus on commemorating the hometown region that has eagerly supported and enjoyed The Cleveland Orchestra in its first hundred years and acknowledge the synergy and symbiosis between city and orchestra, including the Orchestra's role as ambassador for the community's expectations and excellence in all things. As part of this, a special "Around the Region Tour" was featured throughout the season, with the Orchestra and related ensembles (choruses and youth orchestra) performing far and wide in more than twenty programs experienced by over 25,000 and seen by tens of thousands more statewide via telecast, in collaboration with Cleveland-based ideastream, of the ensemble's 2018 Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration concert in January 2018. The season concluded in late spring with two ambitious multi-concert and multi-week festivals. "The Ecstasy of Tristan and Isolde" was built around in-concert performances of Wagner's history-making opera Tristan and Isolde, alongside two additional concerts that explored music's ability to invoke and involve human transcendence, meditation, and understanding. "The Prometheus Project" ended the season in May, with performances of all of Beethoven's symphonies, plus related works, examined (and heard) through the lens of that epochal composer's political views for human justice and individual/community responsibility. The series of concerts was performed on three continents, with sold-out presentations in Vienna and Tokyo following the inaugural sold-out performances in Cleveland at Severance Hall.Overall, more than 165,000 attended Orchestra concerts at Severance Hall between September 2017 and the end of August 2018, including 31 sold-out presentations. (Another 50,000 attended a wide variety of rental events and performances at Severance Hall.)Desc

Overall, 2018 welcomed than 138,500 music-lovers to the Orchestra's Festival concerts 20,000 more than the year before and the highest total in 20 years. This represented an average of 7,250 per concert, the second-highest average in the Festival's history.

DescTouring and ResidenciesEach year, the Orchestra apportions several weeks of its performance schedule to residencies and touring activities beyond Northeast Ohio. These are designed to enhance both the artistic and financial strength of the organization overall, and extend and enhance the Orchestra's worldwide reputation.The Orchestra performed on the road on several occasions several occasions throughout the 2017-18 Centennial Season, including two overseas tours, a two-week residency in Miami, and a pair of concerts at New York's famed Carnegie Hall. Franz Welser-Most conducted all of these concerts, including a fall European Tour (12 concerts) and "The Prometheus Project" performances (5 concerts each in Vienna and Tokyo) in the spring. The Miami residency featured four public concerts and two education presentations for schools, performed across two weeks at the end of January and beginning of February. As part of this tour, the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra and Youth Chorus visited the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus to perform for legislators and other officials.Desc

DescCommunity and EducationThe Cleveland Orchestra continued engaging with more people across Northeast Ohio throughout the 2017-18 Centennial Season, building on an expansive variety of education and community programs and presentations. In addition to such ongoing programs as Family Concerts, Education Concerts (for schools), and Musical Rainbows (now renamed as Music Explorers), new programs included Mindful Music Moments, an innovative tool for social and emotional well-being that provides a four-minute daily dose of classical music coupled with mindfulness exercises delivered via schools' daily morning announcements. In addition to the "Around the Region Tour and Prometheus Project Education Concert mentioned in the season overview, a special Education Concert for schools was also created around the 50th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther King Jr. and presented in Cleveland, Akron, and Miami. Altogether, over 100,000 children, students, and adults, participated in the wide variety of presentations, programs, and ticket opportunities that the Orchestra offers to make music available, affordable, and affecting.Overall, the Orchestra's community and music programs focus on four primary areas: 1) to expand access, so that every child in the Cleveland area, regardless of race or socioeconomic background, can experience The Cleveland Orchestra and be touched by the power of music; 2) to enable more children to play music, in order to reap the life-long cognitive, academic, and social-emotional benefits that quality music-study provides; 3) to advocate and promote why music matters, leveraging the Orchestra's brand to raise awareness of the well-documented benefits of music education and music-making, and to advocate on the local, state, and national level for policies that make music part of a well-rounded education for every child, helping to develop creative and critical thinkers and engaged citizens; and 4) to unite The Cleveland Orchestra's diverse community across Northeast Ohio through music, by connecting citizens of all ages to each other and to the Orchestra.Desc

Part I, Line 1aCharter Travel: The Cleveland Orchestra, on occasion, travels via charter flights when necessary to fulfill foreign or domestic tour concert scheduling requirements. Charter travel is not included in taxable compensation because commercial flights are not always available for domestic and international travel. Travel for Companions: The Executive Director's spouse occasionally travels with him attending concerts and other tour specific functions at the expense of the Musical Arts Association. Companion travel is not included in taxable compensation of the Executive Director in accordance with IRS rules and regulations. Health or social club dues or initiation fees: The Cleveland Orchestra pays dues for the Executive Director's membership at the Union Club of Cleveland. This membership is used by the Executive Director solely for business purposes and is therefore not treated as taxable compensation to the Executive Director. The Cleveland Orchestra also pays gym membership dues for the Executive Director, which is treated as taxable compensation to the Executive Director. The organization is no longer providing after June 30, 2018.
Part I, Line 4bAndre Gremillet, Executive Director, participates in a supplemental non-qualified retirement plan. The Musical Arts Association credited his account for $67,223 in 2017.
