Program accomplishments
- Code 711130 SYMPHONIC CONCERTS - The Utah Symphony was founded during the Great Depression as a Works Progress Administration orchestra under Roosevelt's New Deal. Today, the Utah Symphony is the premiere orchestra in the Intermountain West and one of only sixteen year-round orchestras in the nation. This ranking compares favorably to Utah's rank of 30th among states in population size. The Utah Symphony presented 80 in-person concerts at Abravanel Hall and in communities throughout Utah, reaching approximately 157,300 audience members during the season. A variety of programs are offered featuring some of the industry's most illustrious artists in performance with the Utah Symphony in programs ranging from Classical Symphonies, to Jazz, to Pops. Please see utahsymphony.org for more information. The Utah Symphony | Utah Opera's Education Program benefits Utah's children and is one of the largest in the country, reaching approximately 52,000 students and 2,300 teachers during the fiscal year. Through our education program offerings, each school district in Utah is visited every three to five years. The reach of this programming is far greater than performing arts organizations in other metropolitan areas. In addition to visits to schools, the programs provide opportunities for students to attend performances, rehearsals, master classes, and other great learning events. The community at large is engaged regularly through various Outreach Programs. We present an annual performance for children with special needs and their families reaching over 580 individuals each year, an annual performance for the blind and visually impaired reaching up to 100 members of that community. Other services coordinated by our Education and Outreach Department include a variety of free lectures, internships, on-line learning courses, teacher re-licensure programs, and a Youth Symphony Festival. A stand-out among Utah Symphony | Utah Opera's projects is our local partnership with local museums, art galleries, libraries, film centers, performing arts groups, and scholars, the Festival provides our community opportunities to explore an artistic theme using all their senses. Utah Symphony | Utah Opera is engaged in valuable cooperative relationships with many other non-profit organizations that serve a variety of purposes, including The Road Home, Utah School Boards, Ballet West, and Madeleine Cathedral Choir School. It is also notable that, through a close relationship with the communities it serves, Utah Symphony | Utah Opera is able to reinvest into Utah's economy. The organization employs over 400 individuals each year. *An estimated 93% of Utah Symphony | Utah Opera expenses are fed directly back into the local economy. *Economic development professionals concur that a vibrant symphony and opera are important criteria in attracting new businesses and skilled professionals to Utah. *Source: Salt Lake County Cultural Facilities Master Plan, AMS Consultants, December 2008.Expenses $14,993,490 · revenue $5,797,787

Utah Opera offered 24 performances of four mainstage productions this year.

A Resident Artists program provides aspiring young singers an opportunity to refine their craft while performing secondary roles and singing in education and community outreach programs. Please see utahopera.org for more information. A prime example of the services we are able to render to the arts community is the value housed in the Utah Opera Production Studios. One-of-a-kind facility, the Utah Opera Production Studios houses a team of artisans, designers, and skilled craftsmen who bring the art form of opera to life for Utah Opera and performing arts organizations around the world through its sets and costumes construction and rentals programs. The Utah Opera Production Studios bring the integration of all production activities of the Utah Symphony | Utah Opera to one resourceful location (Costume Shop & Rentals, Prop Studio, Scenic Shop & Scenic Studio, Set Storage, Assembly Bay, Rehearsal Hall) and allows the organization to utilize a business model which combines all aspects of both symphonic and operatic art forms. Production needs for performances at Abravanel Hall, the Capitol Theatre, and even the Deer Valley Music Festival can be designed and built with the resources found in this building. This has resulted in valuable cost savings and artistic synergy for the organization and the community.Expenses $5,346,605 · revenue $966,907
