        <Identifier>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</Identifier>
        <ReturnReference>Part X, Line 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The standards for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes require the Conservatory to report any uncertain tax positions and to adjust its financial statements for the impact thereof. As of June 30, 2013, the Conservatory determined that it had no tax positions that did not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. The Conservatory files tax and information returns in the United States (Federal) and Massachusetts (state) jurisdictions. These returns are generally subject to examination by tax authorities for the last three years.</Explanation>
      </Form990ScheduleDPartXIII>
      <Form990ScheduleDPartXIII>
        <Explanation>Part V: Prior year endowment fund balances have been restated to reflect certain unrestricted funds accumulated from past operating surpluses the Board of Trustees of the Conservatory have designated as a strategic reserve. While these funds have historically been classified as funds functioning as endowment, they bear no external restrictions and may be used for any purpose approved by the Board of Trustees.</Explanation>
