SMB'S ARTISTIC DIRECTOR SELECTED FOUR ORIGINAL SONGS SUGGESTED BY OUR AUDIENCES (ONE FOR EACH EMOTION) AND COMMISSIONED FOUR PROFESSIONAL COMPOSERS TO WRITE NEW CLASSICAL PIECES INSPIRED BY THESE UNEXPECTED ORIGINAL WORKS. THE PROGRAM PREMIERED IN SEPTEMBER AT OUR PARTNER SITES AND IN A PUBLIC CONCERT.THE IMPACT OF OUR CONCERTS CONTINUED TO BE CLOSELY TRACKED AND ANALYZED THROUGH POST-CONCERT SURVEYS AND DOCUMENTED COMMENTS THAT PROVIDE VALUABLE FEEDBACK ON OUR MISSION AND EXECUTION.
