CSO Sessions: Mendelssohn Octet

DEAR CSOA FRIENDS AND FAMILY, The mission of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association is to enrich, inspire and transform lives through music. To “enrich and inspire” during the 2020/21 Season, the CSOA literally transformed the way it reached audiences. It evolved its programming to include more underrepresented voices, developed an extensive suite of virtual performances to enjoy online and responded to evolving health guidelines by redefining how to safely perform on stage and — at long last — to welcome audiences to concerts in Orchestra Hall once again. Each effort bore the hallmark artistic excellence for which the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is known, but there was also something deeply personal about the season. We were inviting the Orchestra into our homes with concert streams. Watching the Orchestra members with the benefit of high-definition audio and visuals gave us a new appreciation for their incredible musicianship, which only increased our desire to hear them perform live. The optics of a dramatically lit, empty Orchestra Hall, combined with the intimacy of chamber music, were especially poignant. After months of anticipation, the happy reunion of CSOA audiences and the Orchestra took place in the late spring of 2021 for three weeks of concerts. The continuous artistic guidance of Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti, the dedication of the Orchestra members, collaboration across the organization and discussions with city and public health officials made those concerts possible. It was incredibly moving to once again experience the electricity that exists in Orchestra Hall when it is filled with eager listeners and the extraordinary music-making of the CSO. We should be incredibly proud of how the CSOA triumphed above the challenges of last season to create a more tightly knit family, strengthened by the shared value that its music plays in our lives and within the broader community. As we look to the organization’s future, I am so pleased to welcome Mary Lou Gorno into her new role as Board Chair. I know she will enjoy, as I have, working with such a dynamic and dedicated group of Trustees. The CSOA’s affiliate groups, including the Governing Members, Women’s Board, League, Overture Council, Negaunee Music Institute Board, African American Network and Latino Alliance, echo the Board’s commitment to the success of this organization. Added to their support is the incredible generosity of a team of individual donors, foundations, corporations, sponsors and volunteers. I also want to extend my thanks to CSOA President Jeff Alexander, whose thoughtful leadership honors the Orchestra’s legacy while also ensuring its future success. This season’s achievements were a testament to the incredible efforts of Jeff and the staff, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to produce its virtual programs and to transition safely back to live performances. It has been a privilege to serve as Board Chair of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association. Thank you for the honor of this opportunity.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

DEAR FRIENDS, In the face of the most challenging circumstances since its founding in 1891, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association (CSOA) reimagined how to keep music present in people’s lives during the 2020/21 Season. Music is vital for the health of our culture and society. By providing life-affirming musical experiences for our dedicated audiences, the CSOA revealed new possibilities for sharing the transformative power of music not only during a time of uncertainty but also as the organization moves further into the 21st century. In the fall of 2020, CSOtv became the epicenter for accessing CSOA programming: our de facto stage as Symphony Center remained closed to audiences. Accessible via cso.org, CSOtv offered a range of free and subscription offerings from newly filmed and archival concert performances to programming designed for children and young musicians. The main feature of CSOtv was the CSO Sessions series, which was created with artistic guidance from Riccardo Muti. Viewers delighted in the chance to see and hear our talented Orchestra members filmed and recorded in high definition in 22 episodes released between October and June. This subscription series provided audiences anywhere in the world a front-row seat to the exceptional artistry of the musicians of the CSO performing repertoire spanning from the Baroque period to today. In fact, four world premieres were included in two episodes curated by Mead Composer-in-Residence Missy Mazzoli — particularly innovative programs that concluded her threeyear residency. The CSO Sessions series created a beautiful and often deeply moving portrait of the members of the CSO, who, in addition to their remarkable performances, offered personal introductions to the pieces of music included in each episode. One journalist referred to the series as “a love letter to both the CSO’s stellar players and to Orchestra Hall.” For the many who watched CSO Sessions, each episode was a heartfelt gift from the Orchestra to its devoted fans. To add to the performances recorded during the season, four archival broadcasts were made available for free on CSOtv on a series titled From the CSO’s Archives: Great Music From Chicago. These performances originally appeared on WGN-TV during the 1950s and ’60s and provided a nostalgic glimpse of the CSO’s legacy on film. Listeners also had the chance to enjoy past CSO performances on the greatly expanded CSOradio broadcast series on the WFMT network. Reminding viewers of the power of a full orchestra on the stage and special energy of a hall full of eager listeners were a variety of previously filmed, live concerts offered as free content on CSOtv. These included the 2014 performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus conducted by Muti and performances by former CSO Music Director Sir Georg Solti conducting Beethoven’s Seventh and Fifth symphonies. Other filmed presentations included a virtual recital by the Lincoln String Quartet filmed during the 2019/20 Season and an hourlong video that highlighted the trumpet’s key role in military and orchestral music produced by CSO trumpet John Hagstrom, the Pritzker Military Museum & Library Chair, that was released on Veterans Day.

In addition to performances by the Orchestra and its members, Symphony Center Presents On Demand featured several guest artists and ensembles on CSOtv, including a piano recital by Jorge Federico Osorio, a holiday performance by Chanticleer recorded in San Francisco and a concert by the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Septet featuring a new composition by its director Wynton Marsalis. The high production value of these concerts resonated with SCP audiences who rely on the series for outstanding piano and jazz performances, as well as concerts that are part of their annual holiday celebrations. As CSOA offerings expanded dramatically online last season, there was constant planning to return to live concerts with an audience in Orchestra Hall as soon as safely possible — a goal that was realized with three weeks of concerts in the spring of 2021. The first concert, on May 27, was the Orchestra’s first performance for an audience in the hall in more than 14 months. Each of the three concerts was a celebration. The first, appropriately titled Fanfare and conducted by CSO trombone Michael Mulcahy, featured members of the CSO brass and percussion sections in a festive program of works by American composers. The next program was conducted by former Sir Georg Solti Conducting Apprentice Erina Yashima and featured a composition by the incoming Mead Composer-inResidence Jessie Montgomery. The final program welcomed Edo de Waart, who conducted works by Mozart and Wagner. These concerts were an important step symbolically and logistically as we prepared to resume performances for the full Orchestra and capacity audiences in Fall 2021.

“ Music is vital for the health of our culture and society. By providing life-affirming musical experiences for our dedicated audiences, the CSOA revealed new possibilities for sharing the transformative power of music not only during a time of uncertainty but also as the organization moves further into the 21st century.”

The CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute reached audiences virtually and in person throughout the 2020/21 Season. It hosted concerts in the community that brought outdoor performances to residents of senior centers and healthcare workers to ensure that those who needed the healing power of live music had it. It adjusted its school programs to provide virtual resources to students and teachers, as well as community members, including parents who have lost children to gun violence through the Notes for Peace project. CSO musicians trained young musicians in online classes and coachings and were featured on an extremely popular Orchestral Excerpt Insights series made accessible through the CSO’s website and social media channels. With its virtual offerings on CSOtv, NMI reached young audiences with a new series of educational videos that combined contemporary children’s literature with classical music performed by members of the CSO and special guests. In addition, the Civic Orchestra of Chicago presented six episodes of chamber music performances and a season finale featuring Principal Conductor Ken-David Masur leading 44 Civic musicians on the Armour Stage at Orchestra Hall. The breadth of its offerings and impact on the people of Chicago were synthesized in the Negaunee Music Institute Showcase video featuring performances by musicians from the Percussion Scholarship Program, Civic Orchestra of Chicago, Chicago Musical Pathways Initiative and more.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Helen Zell, who has served the CSOA as Board Chair since 2016. I am grateful for her insight and counsel, her generosity and ability to approach present challenges while always keeping the future success of the organization front of mind. The amount of time and energy she has given while serving as chair is a testament to her devotion to this organization. During her time as chair, she oversaw the CSO’s 125th anniversary celebration; cultivated new board members and donors; oversaw the development of a 10-year strategic plan; helped the CSOA reach a five-year agreement with the CSO musicians; established new guidelines to develop the CSOA’s diversity, equity and inclusion efforts; contributed to many of the CSO’s recent commissions of new works; eagerly supported the Orchestra on numerous national and international tours in addition to special projects at Orchestra Hall, and, of course, most recently stewarded the organization through the pandemic with remarkable results. I am so grateful to the CSOA family for making the 2020/21 Season a success despite all odds. The challenges of this year were met with the enthusiasm of the musicians of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the creativity of the Negaunee Music Institute, the incredible resourcefulness of the staff and the dedication of our Board of Trustees. The CSOA’s commitment to its mission resulted in an outpouring of generosity from the CSOA’s volunteers, patrons and donors for which we are truly thankful.

TREASURER’S REPORT

The Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association ended its fiscal year in a strong financial position, despite continued headwinds from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Operating revenue was reduced to less than $1 million, compared to pre-pandemic operating revenue of $28.5 million in 2019. The lower operating revenue, driven by an inability to hold in-person concerts due to government mandates to curb the pandemic, led to a need for significant expense reductions and ongoing strong contributed support. The Association invested in innovative new digital programming through CSOtv as a way to remain connected with our “family” of CSO supporters while broadening our reach and delivering on our mission. Along with the normal withdrawal from our endowment to support operating needs, we leaned on our Other Investments fund with a $3 million draw from that fund. The broad-based approach to new programming, disciplined use of our investments, continued operating support from donors and responsible expense management — including the collaboration of all employees in meaningful compensation reductions — resulted in operating income of $1.65 million for the year. The net assets of the Association grew by more than $100 million to $348.7 million at June 30, the result of improvements in the value of our investments, significant new gifts to our Endowment and Other Investment funds and reductions in our pension and interest rate swap liabilities and bonds payable. Endowment and other investments assets were valued at $462 million at June 30, 2021, compared with $361 million at June 30, 2020. Financial sustainability remains a critical pillar of the Association’s long-term strategic goals and, even with the challenges of the past year, our financial footing is strong. The last year also brought into focus the shared goals of all those who work for and with the CSO and those who support the organization with their generosity. We have worked collectively to advance the mission of the CSO to enrich, inspire and transform lives through music, community engagement and education — locally, nationally and internationally. We will continue to respond to the evolving challenges of the pandemic so that we can gather safely to enjoy the artistry of the world-class Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony Chorus, the Civic Orchestra of Chicago and many guest artists on our Symphony Center Presents series.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION

In June 2020, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to ratify new guidelines that formally establish a process to track the evolution of the CSOA’s diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts in programming and practices for audiences, artists, employees and Trustees. Five framework groups were formed in 2021, with participation by more than 60 members of the Board of Trustees, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Chicago Symphony Chorus, Civic Orchestra of Chicago and CSOA administration. With guidance from DEI consultant Heather McClean, the groups were convened to oversee planning, accountability and regular reporting in the following areas of operation: musicians and artists, Trustee recruitment and retention, management and staff, Negaunee Music Institute at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and audience development. During the 2020/21 Season, each framework group developed a mission statement and three goals to be prioritized by administration leadership for delivery over the coming seasons. In June 2021, the groups presented their first report to the Board of Trustees. CSOA management will continue to report annually on the established priorities, progress made and future goals in the five aforementioned areas.

CSOtv To help audiences stay connected with music during the hiatus from live concerts, the CSOA launched a new streaming platform, CSOtv, in fall of 2020. Expanding upon the success of past performance videos and archival recordings released during the earliest months of the pandemic, CSOtv offered newly filmed performances by members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, historic CSO concerts, educational videos and special features throughout the season.

CSO Sessions Anchoring the new digital content available on CSOtv was the CSO Sessions series, created with artistic guidance from Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti and featuring musicians of the CSO performing in chamber ensembles. Beautifully filmed in Orchestra Hall, each of the 22 episodes that premiered in 2020/21 provided patrons a front-row seat to the artistry of CSO musicians. To ensure a safe filming process at Symphony Center, health guidelines were developed in consultation with Dr. Emily Landon of University of Chicago Medicine, and Rush University System of Health administered weekly COVID-19 tests to musicians, stagehands and staff. In addition to these partnerships, the CSO Sessions series was made possible through the collaborative efforts of the CSO musicians, Board of Trustees and CSOA staff. Many of the latter took on new roles such as camera operators or score readers. We are grateful to longtime CSOA photographer Todd Rosenberg for overseeing our video activities and for his skilled camera work and editing abilities, and to CSOA Audio Engineer Charlie Post who so beautifully captured these performances.

“ The Chicago Symphony Orchestra is my musical family, and I am eager to return. Until that time, these streamed performances highlight the talents of this wonderful ensemble. Here, the public is able to witness the great technical abilities and artistry in detail of some of the best musicians in the world. Chicago should be very proud to have such an orchestra.” Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti

Sponsorship support for CSO Sessions was generously provided by the Zell Family Foundation; an anonymous donor; Kenneth C. Griffin Charitable Fund; JCS Arts, Health and Education Fund of DuPage Foundation; the Julian Family Foundation, in honor of Cristina Rocca; Cynthia M. Sargent; Megan and Steve Shebik; Betty W.

Watch CSO Sessions

Throughout the season, iconic chamber works such as Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos, Mozart’s Gran Partita, Mendelssohn’s Octet for Strings and Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time were performed alongside music by living composers such as Amanda Harberg, Paola Prestini, Caroline Shaw, Joan Tower and Mead Composers-in-Residence Missy Mazzoli (2018-21) and Jessie Montgomery (2021-). The series also showcased works by African American composers Nicole Mitchell, Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, Florence Price, Tomeka Reid, Wadada Leo Smith and George Walker; Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, a British composer of African descent, and Guadeloupeborn French composer Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges. From his home in Ravenna, Italy, Riccardo Muti led a coaching session via Zoom with four CSO musicians as they prepared Rossini’s Sonata No. 6 in D Major, which was featured in a CSO Sessions episode that premiered in October. In addition, former Sir Georg Solti Conducting Apprentice Erina Yashima returned to Symphony Center to conduct seven CSO musicians and Chicago-based actor James Earl Jones II in a performance of Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale. Missy Mazzoli concluded her three-year tenure as Mead Composer-inResidence by curating two episodes of CSO Sessions, which were released in June 2021. The programs featured the music of seven composers and included four world premieres, two of which were CSO MusicNOW commissions: Nicole Mitchell’s Cult of Electromagnetic Connectivity and Courtney Bryan’s Requiem. Alexander Hanna, the David and Mary Winton Green Principal Bass Chair, performed as soloist in Dark with Excessive Bright, Mazzoli’s virtuosic concerto for double bass and chamber orchestra.

Support for Symphony Center Presents On Demand was generously provided by Exelon.

Symphony Center Presents On Demand Funding for the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Septet concert and for jazz educational programs (see page 39) during the 2020/21 Season was generously provided by Dan J. Epstein, Judy Guitelman and the Dan J. Epstein Family Foundation.

The engagement of Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Septet was supported by the Arts Midwest Touring Fund, a program of Arts Midwest that is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional contributions from the Illinois Arts Council Agency and the Crane Group.

Several guest artists and ensembles appeared on CSOtv as part of the Symphony Center Presents On Demand series. Mexican-born pianist and Chicago-area resident Jorge Federico Osorio opened the series with an intimate recital recorded in Orchestra Hall, featuring works by Granados, Debussy, Brahms and more. The beloved a cappella ensemble Chanticleer presented A Chanticleer Christmas: From Darkness to Light, a visually stunning film recorded in the San Francisco Bay Area that captured the magic of the group’s annual holiday concert. The series also featured a concert, filmed in New York City, by the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Septet with Wynton Marsalis. Seven of jazz’s finest soloists performed The Democracy! Suite, a new composition written by Marsalis in response to the political, social and economic struggles facing Watch the nation.

Symphony Center Presents On Demand highlights

CSO for Kids For more than 100 years, young people have explored the wonder of classical music through the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s concerts for children. The CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute continued to reach young audiences throughout the 2020/21 Season with a new series of educational videos that used classical music to bring contemporary children’s literature to life. Featuring performances by CSO musicians, engaging animation and narration by guest artists — including Chicago’s First Lady Amy Eshleman; jazz musician Kurt Elling; poet, sociologist and educator Eve L. Ewing; author, children’s musician and early childhood development specialist Jim Gill, and Grammy-nominated children’s rocker Justin Roberts — these videos were streamed on CSOtv and social media for free. In addition, parents and teachers were provided with supplemental educational resources to deepen children’s engagement.

Civic Orchestra of Chicago The Civic Orchestra of Chicago — the CSO’s prestigious ensemble for earlycareer musicians — presented a free series of concerts, filmed at Symphony Center and beyond, on CSOtv. Six episodes featured chamber music by diverse composers from the 18th to 21st centuries, including two programs of music by living composers that were curated by the Civic Fellows. For the season finale, Principal Conductor Ken-David Masur joined 44 Civic Orchestra musicians onstage in Orchestra Hall to perform Missy Mazzoli’s Sinfonia (for Orbiting Spheres) and Schumann’s Fourth Symphony.

From the CSO’s Archives: Great Music From Chicago In 1951, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra became the first American orchestra to appear on a weekly television series. Originally called Hour of Music and later Great Music From Chicago, these concerts were carried over WGN-TV and featured world-renowned conductors and soloists, along with members of the Orchestra. During the 2020/21 Season, four of these archival concerts were streamed on CSOtv. Programs featured then CSO Music Directors Désiré Defauw and Jean Martinon, former Associate Conductor Walter Hendl, violinist Isaac Stern and Frank Miller, longtime principal cello of the CSO.

CSOtv Features A variety of free videos premiered on CSOtv throughout the season, including previous concerts of the CSO, newly recorded performances and special programs.

My Magic Breath, Maybe Something Beautiful and Exquisite were produced in collaboration with Chicago Children’s Theatre.

Support for CSO for Kids was provided by Abbott Fund, Archer Daniels Midland Company, John Hart and Carol Prins, Kinder Morgan, PNC, Megan and Steve Shebik, Michael and Linda Simon, the Walter and Caroline Sueske Charitable Trust and an anonymous family foundation.

Audiences Return to Concerts at Symphony Center On May 27, 2021, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra returned to Orchestra Hall for its first performances for audiences in more than 14 months. The program, appropriately titled Fanfare, featured triumphant music by American composers, performed by members of the CSO brass and percussion sections, conducted by CSO trombone Michael Mulcahy. Musicians, patrons and staff were overjoyed to return to Symphony Center, which, like other arts venues worldwide, had been shuttered by the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020. In attendance at this special concert were workers from Rush University System for Health, who delivered more than 1,250 screening tests to CSO musicians and staff during the pandemic. Two additional weeks of concerts followed, including a program conducted by former Sir Georg Solti Conducting Apprentice Erina Yashima and featuring works by Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Franz Schubert, Zoltán Kodály and Jessie Montgomery, the CSO’s incoming Mead Composer-in-Residence. Guest conductor Edo de Waart, a longtime favorite on the Orchestra Hall podium, closed the three-week concert run with performances of Mozart’s Overture to Don Giovanni and Symphony No. 40 and Wagner’s Siegfried Idyll.

“ With these concerts, we take an important step toward putting this difficult period behind us. Here the spiritual food of culture brings us together again as it has for so many years. Music is not entertainment; it is a mission. It stimulates our greatest emotions and activates our intellectual curiosity. It improves the health of our minds, and in so doing, cultivates the health of our society. Let us heal our hearts with great music.” Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti

Organized by the CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute, the concerts provided moments of much-needed human connection amid the isolation and stress of the pandemic. Residents of the Breakers and Montgomery Place enjoyed chamber and solo music at their retirement communities, respectively located in the Edgewater and Hyde Park neighborhoods.

Civic Orchestra of Chicago During the 2020/21 Season, members of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago continued their training remotely through studio classes with CSO musicians and a variety of professional development workshops. Performance opportunities included the Civic Orchestra’s series of concerts on CSOtv (see page 17) and a mock audition intensive that involved all 85 members of the ensemble working closely with 37 CSO musicians. The Civic Fellows, a group of nine Civic musicians, engaged in additional professional development activities, including a virtual songwriting project with former prisoners and young people who reside in the U.K. Students from Chicago Public Schools who participated in the CSO-Connect school partnership program enjoyed a virtual performance and visit from the Civic Fellows. In addition, the Fellows curated two programs of contemporary music for the Civic Orchestra’s CSOtv series, one of which featured works selected through a global call for scores that garnered more than 200 submissions.

School Partnerships With most local schools operating remotely for at least part of the 2020/21 school year, the Negaunee Music Institute adjusted many of its school programs to continue providing resources for students and teachers online. Educators in approximately 200 schools used CSO for Kids videos (see pages 17 and 25) in their classrooms to supplement curriculum across a variety of subjects — including music, reading and art — and to support students’ social and emotional learning. Students from five schools across Chicago and the suburbs partnered with local senior centers to create their own artwork and video based on May There Always Be Sunshine, the third video in the series. Nine schools participated in CSO-Connect, a partnership between the Negaunee Music Institute and Chicago Public Schools (CPS). Teams of teachers from each school participated in workshops to develop an arts-integrated curriculum, centered on the theme of music and emotion, for hundreds of students in first through eighth grades. Members of the Civic Orchestra continued to mentor CPS students through virtual coaching sessions with high school musicians. Additionally, music teachers in CPS and suburban schools enjoyed free access to episodes of CSO Sessions. After students viewed the performances, CSO musicians joined several classrooms for virtual conversations.

“ Our Sinfonietta Orchestra class watched the CSO Sessions episode of Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale before our Q&A session. … The [Q&A] session was a great connection moment with the musicians, as our students realized that CSO musicians are human, too, and have been through, or are going through, a lot of the same things that they are as high school students. It was a highlight of the school year!” Orchestra Director Devon Morales, Lane Tech College Prep High School

Training of Young Musicians Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti coached five fellows of the Chicago Musical Pathways Initiative (CMPI) in a master class on March 31, 2021. With Maestro Muti joining virtually from Italy, the young musicians performed chamber music in Orchestra Hall for an audience of more than 220 households watching via livestream. CMPI’s mission is to identify and develop gifted and motivated orchestral students from underrepresented backgrounds for acceptance into top-tier classical music programs in preparation for careers as professional musicians. The CSO’s Negaunee Music Institute is one of 12 CMPI Advisory Council partner organizations. Throughout the school year, each student in the Percussion Scholarship Program (PSP) received two lessons per week via video conference, and older students mentored younger students through video practice sessions every day. While students primarily recorded recitals from their homes, several PSP members came to Symphony Center in spring of 2021 to film performances for the first annual Negaunee Music Institute Showcase (see page 27). During the 2021 Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Septet’s virtual residency (see page 16), students from local music programs participated in two virtual Q&A sessions with members of the ensemble, as well as a virtual interview and Q&A with trumpeter-composer Wynton Marsalis. In addition, students were provided free early access to the ensemble’s virtual performance of The Democracy! Suite, which premiered on CSOtv as part of the Symphony Center Presents On Demand series.

Notes for Peace

“ I’m honored to have you do this for my son. I have to tell his story. This helps me do that.” Aimee Giles

Notes for Peace, a project of the Negaunee Music Institute, empowers parents who have lost children to gun violence to create original songs honoring the lives and memories of their loved ones. In fall of 2020, Notes for Peace music videos were showcased as part of Strides for Peace: The Race Against Gun Violence, an annual event that raises funds for Chicagoarea community organizations that work to reduce and respond to gun violence, and the Peace Studio’s 100 Offerings of Peace, a project that brought together artists from many fields to create artwork in response to both the COVID-19 pandemic and the movement for racial justice. With leadership from teaching artists of the U.K.-based Irene Taylor Trust, Civic alumni Roslyn Green and Juan Olivares and the Civic Fellows, 12 new songs were composed and professionally recorded during the 2020/21 Season and are available, alongside family photos and lyrics, on notesforpeace.org. Since 2017, nearly 70 families have written songs in memory of their loved ones.

“Myles of Smiles” by Aimee Giles and Sara Lee for Aimee’s son Myles Frazier

“My Golden Child” by Sharon Purnell and Juan Gabriel Olivares for Sharon’s son Damien Purnell

“Someday They’ll Write a Song About You” by LaWanda Sterling and Rex Horan for LaWanda’s son Jeremiah Sterling

SOCIAL MEDIA, DIGITAL AND RADIO

As the pandemic prevented the CSOA from safely welcoming audiences to Symphony Center until late May 2021, musicians and staff alike embraced the opportunity to develop digital content in lieu of live, in-person concerts and events. In addition to the release of recorded performances on new platforms like CSOtv, CSOradio programming was expanded. The season also provided a chance for audiences to hear directly from CSO musicians in new ways — through interviews, podcasts, educational videos and more. This digital content has been made available through a new online hub called Experience CSO and shared broadly through social media and email campaigns.

The Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association thanks Bank of America for its special support of the CSOradio Broadcast series.

Generous support for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association’s media portal is provided by the Walter and Karla Goldschmidt Foundation.

CSOradio The CSOradio broadcast series brings unparalleled live performances to thousands of listeners weekly. It features live concert performances by the CSO, recorded in Orchestra Hall, alongside selections from the Orchestra’s catalog of recordings. The series airs on Sundays on WFMT 98.7 FM in Chicago, then is syndicated on 504 stations in 41 states and Puerto Rico. During the 2020/21 Season, the CSOA and WFMT also presented two Tuesday radio broadcast series, which helped grow the number of Tuesday evening listeners by 350%. From the CSO’s Archives: Maestro’s Choice, curated by Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti, featured 24 broadcasts from April through September 2020. Next, 41 broadcasts aired as part of From the CSO’s Archives: The First 130 Years. Prepared with support from the Rosenthal Archives of the CSOA, the series was part of the Orchestra’s 130th season and focused on its extensive discography, featuring Grammy Award–winning releases, as well as recordings highlighting virtually every era in CSO history.

Experience CSO In February 2021, the CSOA launched the website Experience CSO, a new source for music lovers to immerse themselves in the sounds and stories behind the music of the CSO. The site offers articles, audio and video featuring the CSO and Chicago Symphony Chorus, as well as artists on the Symphony Center Presents series and members of the CSOA family, including the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, donors and volunteers. Experience CSO replaces Sounds & Stories, but the new site features popular S&S components, including CSOradio broadcasts, concert clips, playlists, interviews and more. Since its launch, Experience CSO has averaged 19,667 unique page views per month. Special features in the 2020/21 Season included a compilation of articles, playlists and videos in celebration of Black History Month (February 2021), Women’s History Month (March 2021), Volunteer Appreciation (April 2021) and Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (May 2021). Experience CSO also marked the conclusion of Missy Mazzoli’s tenure as Mead Composer-in-Residence with a series of articles and videos featuring Mazzoli discussing her time in this role (May/June 2021).

THE SYMPHONY STORE

Despite being closed to in-person traffic, the Symphony Store saw great success over the course of the fiscal year. Annual revenue came in just over $132,000 — more than triple the initial sales goal, with a 182% increase in web revenue compared with the previous fiscal year. A variety of promotional offers and incentives contributed to this tremendous increase in sales. Highlights included the annual Holiday Sale, which brought in more than $41,000 in revenue over 714 orders, and the inaugural Summer Sale in July. New this year was the sale of face masks. In September 2020, two face mask designs were made available in the Symphony Store. The Chicago Flag design was the top-selling item store-wide this year, generating nearly $7,800 revenue with over 600 units sold. In total, over 1,500 face masks were produced and distributed to store customers, supporters of the Sounds of Celebration event, CSO musicians and CSOA employees.

SEMPRE ALWAYS: The Campaign for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is a $175 million fundraising effort to provide the secure footing needed to promote the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s preeminent role as a cultural icon showcasing musical brilliance, leadership and innovation. With an inaugural commitment and challenge from Helen and Sam Zell, leading members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association family have made substantial gifts as unrestricted campaign contributions. These gifts will allow the CSOA to begin achieving goals of a long-term strategic plan that focus on enhancing the Orchestra’s world-class status, while boldly and openly addressing systemic fiscal challenges. The CSOA is grateful for a number of commitments that provide ongoing endowment support for programs, facilities and positions, including the Ling Z. and Michael C. Markovitz Fund for the Assistant Concertmaster Chair and Symphony Center Arcade, the Steven and Megan Shebik Community Engagement Programs Fund, the Cathy and Bill Osborn Associate Concertmaster Chair, the Dora and John Aalbregtse Piccolo Chair and William and Elisabeth Adams’ underwriting of Box S in Orchestra Hall. A complete list of SEMPRE ALWAYS donors can be found online.

Planned Giving Bequests Legacy gifts to support the CSOA’s future endeavors

$7.6 MILLION

Planned gifts, including bequests through a will, trust or retirement plan, or established through an annuity, help ensure that the CSOA can continue to share the transformative power of music with future generations. During the 2020/21 Season, the CSOA received more than $7.6 million in gifts from the estates of CSOA family members. This is more than the Association has received in legacy gifts in a single fiscal year in more than five years.

gifts from the estates of CSOA family members

The CSOA gratefully remembers Christopher Culp, CSOA trustee and more than 20-year subscriber; Isak and Nancy Gerson, 50-year subscribers who were involved with the Governing Members and League of the CSOA, and Raymond Niwa, a member of the CSO violin section from 1951 to 1997. Their gifts make up a vital foundation that helped to support the organization in a year of uncertainty and change.

The CSOA’s planned giving society Named in honor of the founder and first music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Theodore Thomas Society recognizes those who make financial plans — in any amount — to benefit the CSO in the future. Stradivarian Associates, a unique group within the Society, are those members who provide documentation for an irrevocable planned gift of $50,000 or more or a revocable planned gift of $100,000 or more. Through special activities and access to VIP Patron Services, the Theodore Thomas Society honors its members by enhancing their appreciation of music as well as their inclusion in the CSOA family.

Across the CSOA Family Governing Members The CSOA’s first established philanthropic society The Governing Members (GMs) have been dedicated to ensuring the Orchestra’s success since 1894. In the 2020/21 Season, GMs participated in a variety of virtual events, including a conversation with Civic Orchestra Principal Conductor Ken-David Masur, a presentation about the CSO’s audition process, a behind-the-scenes look at the CSO Sessions production process and a series of Community & Conversation virtual happy hours.

Women’s Board A group of dynamic women leaders producing fundraising events and activities to benefit the CSO On October 24, 2020, the Women’s Board presented Sounds of Celebration: An Evening at Home with the CSO, a virtual fundraising event held in lieu of the annual Symphony Ball gala. The evening’s main attraction — a free, hourlong online broadcast — featured performances by CSO musicians and cellist Yo-Yo Ma, as well as special appearances by Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti and a star-studded lineup of guests. With leadership from Women’s Board Co-chairs Ruthie Ryan and Cynthia Scholl, Trustee Co-chair Robert Kohl and Women’s Board President Shelley Ochab, along with Northern Trust as presenting sponsor, Sounds of Celebration exceeded its fundraising goal and raised more than $920,000 for the CSOA.

Past Fall in Love with Music guests, including Marin Alsop, Emanuel Ax, James Gaffigan and Leif Ove Andsnes, made special appearances. Under the leadership of co-chairs Jessica Erickson and Mimi Duginger, the event raised $54,000 — more than double its goal — for the CSOA’s educational and community engagement programs.
