Since 1880, the organization has entertained several generations of individuals in various concert halls, public parks, schools, churches and elsewhere. Nearly 250,000 people listen to music presented by the organization every year. In addition to the concerts at Powell Hall, more than one-third of the organization's audiences hear musicians perform at parks, schools, churches and other venues throughout the region. In addition, more than 40% of the total audience for all performances during the year pays little or nothing to hear those performances. The organization's best-known educational programs are its three series of education concerts in Powell Hall, which began in the 1920s and today serve over 40,000 students from 1,000 schools annually. In addition to educating and entertaining youngsters at Powell Hall, the musicians make nearly 150 visits to local schools each season. Many of these visits occur through the E. Desmond Lee Fine Arts Education Collaborative, a partnership with the University of Missouri-St. Louis (UMSL), twelve local arts organizations, and more than 100 schools in 14 districts. The organization also has an extenisve community partnership effort. Each year musicians perform free of charge almost 300 times to facilitate musical understanding. In addition, our IN UNISON Program, a partnership between the organization and 40 African-American chruches, is designed to forge new musical collaborations at the churches and at Powell Hall. 0 0 0 21175660 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 85 0 1 526 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 52 49 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 IL X X X James J Garrone 3145332500 718 North Grand Avenue St Louis MO 63103 Bert Condie III 1 X 0 0 0 Emily Rauh Pulitzer 1 X 0 0 0 Fred Bronstein 60 X X 368279 0 38048 Mary Strauss 2 X X 0 0 0 Dr Mark S Wrighton 1 X 0 0 0 Noemi Neidorff 1 X 0 0 0 Dr Donald M Suggs 2 X X 0 0 0 William Carey 1 X 0 0 0 Carolyn Farrell 1 X 0 0 0 Marjorie Ivey 1 X 0 0 0 Gwendolyn Packnett 1 X 0 0 0 Dr Victor Ruiz 1 X 0 0 0 Sandy Galt 1 X 0 0 0 Susan Veidt 1 X 0 0 0 Les J Buechele 1 X 0 0 0 Allan R Cohen 1 X 0 0 0 Rodney J Boyd 1 X 0 0 0 Lawrence P Katzenstein 2 X X 0 0 0 Jo Ann Taylor Kindle 2 X X 0 0 0 Donna Wilkinson 2 X X 0 0 0 Patrick Finneran Jr 1 X 0 0 0 Walter Shifrin 1 X 0 0 0 Rick A Short 2 X X 0 0 0 Sally S Levy 1 X 0 0 0 Lisa McMullin 1 X 0 0 0 Ann M Sullins 1 X 0 0 0 Sanford Neuman 1 X 0 0 0 Dr Gordon W Philpott 1 X 0 0 0 Rex A Sinquefield 1 X 0 0 0 Kimberley Ann Eberlein 1 X 0 0 0 Joel S Iskiwitch 1 X 0 0 0 Eugene Kornblum 1 X 0 0 0 David A Baetz 1 X 0 0 0 Barry H Beracha 2 X X 0 0 0 Ned O Lemkemeier 2 X X 0 0 0 Kathleen T Osborn 1 X 0 0 0 Jean Saunders 1 X 0 0 0 David C Farrell 1 X 0 0 0 Lee M Liberman 1 X 0 0 0 Vaughn Morrill Jr 1 X 0 0 0 Michael F Neidorff 1 X 0 0 0 Edwin H Trusheim 1 X 0 0 0 Bjorn K Ranheim 40 X 82317 0 15960 Philip A Ross 40 X 94624 0 20151 Joyce Cacho 1 X 0 0 0 Walter Hawkins Jr 1 X 0 0 0 Mark Hood 1 X 0 0 0 Peter M Miller 1 X 0 0 0 Thelma E Steward 1 X 0 0 0 H Chandler Taylor 1 X 0 0 0 Carolyn F Henges 1 X 0 0 0 Sandra A Van Trease 1 X 0 0 0 James J Garrone 40 X 191821 0 31740 David Robertson 40 X 903150 0 51242 Scott D Andrews 40 X 169666 0 25277 Mark Sparks 40 X 173970 0 25954 David Halen 40 X 223379 0 28667 Daniel Lee 40 X 154463 0 17247 Timothy Case 40 X 166022 0 19630 2527691 0 273916 32 0 1 0 DCM Inc 45 Main Street Ste 816 Brooklyn NY 11201 Telefunding 157636 Opus 3 Artists 470 Park Avenue South 9th Floor New York NY 10016 Talent Agency 326941 TeleUnique McQnications 1805 N Talbot Street Indianapolis IN 462021514 Telemarketing 189288 ABM Janitorial Services-North Central 75 Remittance Drive Ste 3048 Chicago IL 606753048 Building Maintenance 138179 Advertisers Printing Co Inc Dept Number 22925 PO Box 790100 St Louis MO 631790100 Printing 136934 7 0 0 707269 0 454564 10436141 504176 11597974 Concert Revenue 711130 7605949 7605949 0 0 Touring Revenue 711130 437000 437000 0 0 Tuition 711130 54561 54561 0 0 Performance Hall Revenue 711130 217032 217032 0 0 0 0 0 0 8314542 69936 0 0 69936 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 464209 0 469563 0 -5354 0 -5354 0 0 -5354 325982 707269 254979 71003 71003 0 0 Endowment Draw 711130 6102000 0 0 6102000 Other Income 711130 377556 0 0 377556 0 0 0 0 6479556 26527657 8385545 0 6544138 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1745120 1152533 592587 0 0 0 0 0 13373297 11632049 912602 828646 566689 515224 23146 28319 1608409 1429831 104354 74224 968014 847540 68837 51637 40733 0 40733 0 36187 31071 4874 242 46557 0 46557 0 0 0 0 0 154921 154921 0 0 0 0 268079 87244 162870 17965 815172 751878 18084 45210 1181949 866444 170351 145154 145531 18362 112749 14420 0 0 0 0 887984 295074 496714 96196 591014 542116 42696 6202 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6705 0 6705 0 0 0 0 0 444504 333378 66676 44450 229818 190157 12153 27508 Artists' Fees 1727773 1727773 0 0 Other Concert Costs 510187 491610 1496 17081 Telemarketing 210828 210828 0 0 Food, Training & Entertainment 162477 52548 51694 58235 5095 0 5095 0 25727043 21175660 2940973 1610410 14750 14705 2313856 1339877 12032608 12295273 89018 7689 682204 410153 0 0 739237 1055931 8047 8891 611729 556236 11583318 7592473 3847772 3990845 4013526 4353728 4731295 5057217 29084042 29090545 817594 1275779 0 0 3480446 3404918 0 0 0 0 0 0 225000 225000 0 0 6413942 8728757 10936982 13634454 X -66963 -2504584 14884883 13779389 3329140 4181286 18147060 15456091 29084042 29090545 X 1 1 1 X 0 X 13007119 12818493 9575579 8596005 9758974 53756170 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13007119 12818493 9575579 8596005 9758974 53756170 7820706 45935464 350064 444183 342914 172697 69936 1379794 0 0 0 0 0 0 624526 570834 624829 517000 443205 2780394 57916358 33359318 0.79313 0.81928 X Part II, Line 10 includes primarily miscellaneous income, net income from fundraising activities and net gain or loss from sale of securities included in contributions.
