4ANNUAL R E P O R T7/1/13 - 6/30/14

For our 98th season we invited audiences to Be Inspired. Be engaged. BE ENTERTAINED and they were.

The Phil’s season opened with a party as everyone joined in to celebrate Music Director and Conductor Steven Karidoyanes’ 20 Anniversary with the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra (the Phil) making him the longest serving conductor in our history. The concert was set up with tables “pops style” to encourage the party atmosphere. The program consisted of John Williams’ Liberty Fanfare, Demetrius Spaneas’ original piece Three Dialogues, Shostakovich’s Festive Overture, Gershwin’s American in Paris with Rispighi’s Pines of Rome as a finale. A good time was certainly had by all!

For the rest of the season, we continued to celebrate. Our “Classically Romantic” November concert was held at the brand new Performing Arts Center within the new Plymouth North High School. In December, we were able to entertain even more audience members for our ever popular Holiday Pops concerts. By popular demand we

added a third concert and played to three sold out houses instead of two. This means we were able to bring holiday joy to over 3,000 people for this festive season. Our spring classical concert was yet another successful collaboration with the High School Choral Consortium. Among the schools participating were Duxbury, Marshfield, Pembroke, Plymouth North, Plymouth South, Scituate and Silver Lake Regional High School.

Education remains a constant priority for the Phil. In addition to the High School Choral Consortium, we also partnered with the Plymouth Children’s Chorus and the South Shore Conservatory’s Youth Concert Competition Winner, pianist Karen Ji, for the annual Spring Family Concert. The hands-on instrument demonstration is always a big hit with our younger audience members. It brings us great joy to see people of all ages enjoying fine music.

For the first time we brought Take 5 for Music to the Plymouth Public Schools. This program engages elementary age students with five minutes of classical music, five days a week for five years. It’s a simple, yet highly effective listening program that introduces young students to music. Take 5 for Music has room for growth and we plan to make it available not only to all Plymouth students, but extend it to other schools in Plymouth County.

Our regular concert season concluded with a popular program entitled Heroes, Monsters & Madmen and featured guest artist Craig Schulman. Audiences were thoroughly entertained.

But we weren’t done yet! Our community outreach continued to extend beyond Plymouth’s border as members of our orchestra performed a series of four free concerts at Laura’s Center for the Arts at the Hanover YMCA – a first for the Phil! The concerts were very well attended. We were grateful to see some old friends and to make some new friends who had never seen the Phil before. We plan to make this series an annual tradition.

As if that weren’t enough, interspersed in all the concerts were two annual fundraisers – The Golf Tournament and the Gala of Giving. These very special events raise funds to support our programs.

The Phil’s administrative offices also moved in 2014. The new address is 32 Court Street, Plymouth – right next door to the old Court House and right in the middle of town. The new office is much more convenient for ticket buyers. Stop in and say hello!

One of the major goals of the Phil is to make sure that tickets are always affordable so the music is accessible to everyone – including families! Ticket prices range from $20 - $65 with student rush tickets only $5. Prices for the Family Concert are only $8 - $20. The only way we can make that happen is with support from the community. We especially want to thank our sponsors, donors, volunteers and ticket buyers for their generosity. Without your help, all this would not be possible.

The Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra

OUR MISSION

The mission of the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra is to present and promote excellent music that inspires, entertains and engages people of all ages.

OUR HISTORY

From its beginnings as a 30-piece ensemble of dedicated recreational players, the Phil has grown into a fully professional symphony orchestra. Today, under the guidance of Music Director and Conductor Steven Karidoyanes, the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra has taken its place as a major cultural force in Southeastern Massachusetts, earning support from patrons and concert-goers from towns throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island.

Except for two years during World War II, the orchestra has been in continuous operation since 1913. The lineage of conductors leading the Plymouth Philharmonic over the years is an impressive group of individuals. G. Herbert Clarke, a Kingston violin teacher, established the orchestra in 1913, serving as both conductor and manager until his death in 1932. The orchestra was then reorganized under Edgar Beauregard who, with the exception of the two years during World War II, continued as conductor until 1950. The baton was then passed to Beltrando Brini (1950-58), Josef Cobert (1959-61), Jerome Cohen (1962-66), John Pacheco (1967-72), and several guest conductors.

In 1973 the orchestra became a chartered, non-profit corporation and, with Boston Symphony Orchestra violinist Victor Yampolsky as conductor, began to move from amateur to professional status. Conductor Rudolf Schlegel (1976-1993) then led the orchestra through a period of significant growth, resulting in a dramatic rise in public support and appreciation.

Since his appointment as Music Director in 1994, Steven Karidoyanes continues to raise the orchestra to new levels of excellence year after year. Under his guidance, the Phil enjoys an unsurpassed reputation for artistic excellence, innovative programs and inspired community collaborations. Today, the Phil plays to critical acclaim, has given world premieres, performs with world-renowned soloists, and has performed in venues from Boston to Cape Cod.

Steven KaridoyanesMusic Director & Conductor

As a conductor, composer and broadcaster, Boston native Steven Karidoyanes brings a wealth of musical experiences to the podium.

This is Mr. Karidoyanes’ 21st season as conductor and music director of the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra. Continually praised for the level of distinction to which he brings his ensembles, one reviewer said of the Beethoven Missa Solemnis performance he conducted, “Karidoyanes and his forces navigated it with absolute confidence, allowing the composer’s unruly spirit to speak clearly through them.” (Boston Globe, November 7, 2011.) This is also his 11th season conducting the New England Conservatory Youth Symphony, leading concerts in Boston’s most prestigious concert venues and in past concert tours of Italy, Greece, Costa Rica and Eastern Europe, and his ninth season leading Masterworks Chorale, conducting choral/orchestral masterworks in Harvard University’s Sanders Theatre.

He has served the Boston Pops as an understudy conductor for select rehearsals and performances since 2008. In August 2013 he returned to Prague for his second engagement leading the North Czech Philharmonic in concert. Other past international guest conducting engagements include Hungary’s Savaria Symphony Orchestra in Hainburg, Austria, the Prague (CZ) Symphony Chamber Orchestra, and Costa Rica’s National Music Institute Youth Symphony. He has also led the Syracuse Symphony, Rochester Philharmonic, and orchestras in the Washington, D.C. region. Opera productions conducted include Cape Cod Opera’s Carmen, The Mikado by the Bostonian Opera & Concert Ensemble [a.k.a. “The Bostonians”] and Opera-by-the-Bay’s (MA) Die Fledermaus. He has held the posts of Music Director of the Boston College Symphony Orchestra, Associate Conductor of the Winston-Salem Symphony and Greensboro Symphony orchestras in North Carolina, and Assistant Conductor of the Rhode Island Philharmonic. Mr. Karidoyanes has served on the faculty of the Boston University Tanglewood Institute for ten seasons, and on the conducting faculty of the New England Conservatory.

Complementing his performing activities, Mr. Karidoyanes is a composer and member of ASCAP. His composition, Yerakína: Dionysian Dance for Orchestra, was written for and premiered by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and has been performed by the Boston Pops. His Café Neon: Fantasy on Greek Songs and Dances has been performed over thirty times by over a dozen orchestras coast to coast plus Italy, Greece and Australia. A classical music announcer/producer, Mr. Karidoyanes has worked for National Public Radio affiliates in Boston, North Carolina and Indiana.

Steven Karidoyanes holds a Bachelor of Music Degree from Boston University and received training in orchestral conducting at the Canford School of Music in Dorset, England, where he studied with renowned British conducting coach, the late George Hurst. Additional orchestral studies earned him the Outstanding Graduate Student Award for two consecutive years from Ball State University in Indiana.

Mr. Karidoyanes lives in Boston with his wife, Amy. They have two sons, Michael and Nicholas.

Be Inspired. Be Engaged. Be Entertained!Inspiring and Educating the Community Through Music

The Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra is deeply committed to music education and community outreach. Over the years the Phil has developed a variety of educational and community programs aimed at encouraging a lifelong love of music for people of all ages.

In-School Music Education Programs

Take 5 for Music engages students with 5 minutes of classical music, 5 days a week for 5 years. It is a simple, yet highly effective listening program that introduces young students to music. The program presents one composer and one composition each week. Each morning an all-school announcement is made before the music is played. These “scripts” introduce the composer, emphasize key concepts and summarize the music. The composition is played daily. The benefits of this program help students learn music in an easy familiar way.

Look, Listen, Learn An extension of Take 5, this program brings the excitement of live music into the classroom. Small ensembles from the Phil (including a string quartet, brass quintet, woodwind quintet and a percussion duo) offer interactive mini-educational concerts and instrument demonstrations to area schools.

Philharmonic Field Trip The Phil performs hour-long, student friendly performances in Memorial Hall. Schools are invited to come and learn about the orchestra, hear a concert and learn the beauty of symphonic music.

Music Immersion Program is a comprehensive program offered in the Plymouth Public Schools to immerse students in the world of music. By combining Take 5; Look, Listen and Learn; and the Philharmonic Field Trip students gain a complete understanding and appreciation of music both in-school and by attending a live performance by the full orchestra at Memorial Hall. The program brings in all four ensembles to every school in Plymouth for grades 3, 4 & 5 throughout the school year. In spring the program culminates with the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra performing a concert in Memorial Hall for every student grades 3, 4 & 5 for the entire school system. This concert is also open to other schools in Plymouth County as a field trip.

Music is profoundly inspirational. It has the power to change our perception, change our thinking and change our lives. Yet, no one can predict when that inspiration will strike. We only know that when it does, greatness follows.

A 4th grade student recently sang in the Phil’s children’s chorus. Her learning disability made her painfully shy. Her teachers described her as a “selective mute.” If she thought she was going to be called upon in class, she would start to cry. There was one class, however, where she felt comfortable – music class. And this made all the difference. When she learned about the Phil’s children’s choir she approached her music teacher and whispered to her that she wanted to audition. Amazed by the request, the teacher auditioned the girl and she made the chorus. The girl was so proud she told her councilor, who told the occupational therapist, who told her parents, who say this experience has given their daughter the confidence to meet other, more difficult challenges.

These programs would not be possible without the support of the Rogers Family Foundation, the Edgar and Pauline Main Family Foundation, the Massachusetts Cultural Council and the generous support of individual donors and sponsors.


Partnerships and Music Education for Our Community

Performance at the Plymouth Waterfront for the 4th of July Every other year the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra presents a free, outdoor concert on the Plymouth waterfront as part of the 4th of July activities. The town’s Star Spangled Celebration attracts thousands of people of all ages and from many surrounding communities. The future goal is to make the Fourth of July with the Phil an annual event.

Community Concerts Every year the Phil presents free-to-the-public concerts that are accessible to all. The concerts include the Summer Music Series at the Hanover YMCA and the 4th of July waterfront performances.

Creative Partnerships Committed to building a strong community, the Phil partners with area organizations to raise awareness and create initiatives that make the South Shore a better place to live and work.

Family Concert The Phil’s annual Family Concert is a family-friendly concert for people of all ages. Showcasing light classical music, this hour-long concert features lively symphonic works that are accessible to novice ears and yet still pleasing to experienced orchestra concertgoers. Preceding each concert is a hands-on instrument demonstration by Phil musicians. Tickets prices are kept low to ensure that these performances are affordable and accessible to families.

Youth Concerto Winner’s Performance In partnership with the South Shore Conservatory, the Phil annually hosts the winner of the SSC’s Concerto Competition winner as a featured soloist. The winning soloist performs with orchestra at the Family Concert in Memorial Hall for over 1,000 concertgoers.

Bay Youth Symphony (BaYS) Bay Youth Symphony (BaYS) is an auditioned, sequential youth orchestra program at the South Shore Conservatory. In collaboration with the Plymouth Philharmonic, the senior members of BaYS orchestra play alongside Phil musicians during a Plymouth Philharmonic performance. The Phil’s Music Director, Steven Karidoyanes, also serves as the BaYS Artistic Advisor throughout the year.

Plymouth Children’s Chorus Plymouth Children’s Chorus engages 125 4th and 5th grade students from the Plymouth Public Schools. In cooperation with school music teachers, it includes eight weeks of rehearsals and a performance of this select chorus with the Phil the annual Family Concert.

High School Choral Consortium High School Choral Consortium is a collaborative choral program in partnership with the following South Shore High Schools:

Duxbury High School Plymouth South High School Marshfield High School Silver Lake Regional High School Pembroke High School Scituate High School Plymouth North High School


The choirs at each school work together to prepare and perform in a concert with the Phil. Each group (270 students in total) practices with their own choral directors for the fall semester. In January, they rehearse as a combined group for eight weeks. They then rehearse with the full orchestra, to prepare for their performance with the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra. The High School Choral Consortium performs at the Phil’s Family Concert every other year, alternating with the Bay Area Youth Symphony.

Federal Furnace Treble ChorusIn partnership with the Federal Furnace School in Plymouth, this free chorus, an auditioned group of fourth and fifth grade students who sing with the Phil at the annual Holiday Pops concerts.

Meet the Maestro This free event is held at the Plymouth Public Library in the fall. Music Director Steven Karidoyanes gives a lively and informative introduction of the upcoming season of music and guest artists offering insight and listening tips for people of all ages.

Your Symphonic CompanionYour Symphonic Companion is an engaging 2-hour presentation for adults. It’s Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Listening to Symphonic Music But Were Afraid to Ask. Conductor Karidoyanes introduces all the basic elements of music in a user-friendly way, focusing on how to listen, what to listen for, and how to appreciate and musical creativity and expression. This program is free and is available upon request for large groups.

Pre-concert Talks Prior to each classical performance Music Director Karidoyanes discusses the music for that evening’s performance. The pre-concert talks are free to all ticket holders.

Student Rush Any student can attend a Phil concert for just $5. The program is offered to students up to and including college students with a valid ID.

Plymouth native Matt Sorenson is a musician, a teacher, and perhaps one of most promising young composers in our region. Matt’s love of music began as a child. His mother listened to Italian opera and his dad listened to the Beatles. Matt claims listening to different types of music led him on a life-long journey of self-expression.

“Music shapes our outlook on life,” says Matt, “and for each of us there is a moment…a single moment…when inspiration takes hold.” Matt’s “moment” was when, as a young child, he heard Andrew Lloyd Webber’s haunting score, Phantom of the Opera, played live. Since then he’s been faithfully pursuing his passion for music. Matt composed a score to be played live by the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra. Matt’s piece was performed by the very orchestra that inspired him as a child.



Treasurer’s Report: Year ended June 30, 2014Our goal is to make music is available, affordable and accessible to the entire community.

The year ended June 30, 2014 has been one of expansion, investment and growth for the Phil. In January, our corporate headquarters moved to Plymouth’s new cultural district at 32 Court Street in downtown Plymouth, Massachusetts. We’ve expanded our Box Office hours to better serve our ticket buyers and sponsors and are now open weekdays from 10am-4pm and 2 hours prior to concerts at the concert locations.

We also welcomed our first full-time Executive Director, Kim Corben. Kim is a long-time Plymouth resident whose previous experience includes the Cape Symphony, the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and Plimoth Plantation. Other additions to the staff include an administrative/box office assistant and a grant writer.

We are strengthening the financial base so as to ensure the Phil’s future. It is important, as we look toward offering our concerts and educational programs to more communities on the south shore, that we set a plan for managed growth and set priorities for our future. We have begun a strategic planning process to identify and develop initiatives and resources to assure a vibrant future for the Phil.

The Phil is a non-profit organization and relies on contributions from individuals, foundations, and corporate supporters within the wider community. Ticket sales account for only 45% of the cost of producing a concert and music education programs are offered at no cost to students through the schools. This can only be accomplished with your support. As we look toward our 100th season, we are proud of what we have accomplished. The support we have received from the community has reaffirmed our optimism for the future.

Financial Statement Highlights*

The Statement of Financial Position for the year ended June 30, 2014 shows that current assets increased by 6% over the prior year, while total assets increased by 10%. One notable increase in liabilities is in deferred revenue representing advanced ticket sales. There is a 43% increase in advance ticket sales (deferred revenue) over the prior year. This increase demonstrates higher demand for tickets for the 99th season and provides financial strength to the organization as well.

Before taking into account non-recurring costs, and reimbursable items, the net loss for the year was $2,838 (see statement of activities). With new resources in place and investments made for our future, we forecast the budget for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 will be profitable.

Principal (June 2006)

“…the yearlong project was exceptional! To have brought the 4 ensembles to every 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade student in Plymouth, and then to have them all attend Memorial Hall was wonderful.”

Dan (Grade Five)

“That was the first concert I ever went to and it might be the best I will ever go to. I didn’t know I like the orchestra so much!”

Iliana (Grade Five)

“I had a really fun time and hopefully when I become famous and I sing I’ll tell everyone about the orchestra I went to for the first time in 5th grade.”


Parent“Your Music Immersion program was outstanding!

The benefits are sure to be seen in the years to come!”

Miranda (Grade Five)

“It was exciting to see real professionals. I really enjoyed it.”

We thank you because you put your love in it for us.
