Mainly Mozart Youth Orchestra Recital and Showcase Series
Project Summary:*
Please provide us with a brief summary of your project.
Mainly Mozart is requesting funding to produce three concerts featuring the 2024-2025 Mainly Mozart Youth
Orchestra (MMYO) in two Carlsbad locations. The MMYO has been a signature program since 1995. An
annual, ongoing offering, MMYO is comprised of 340 San Diego students (ages 5-18) who make up seven
separate ensembles from beginners to advanced high school musicians. These students transform their lives
through music education, performance opportunities, and confidence-building leadership training.
The first concert will be held at Carlsbad’s Dove Library’s Schulman Auditorium and will feature the MMYO’s
Solo Competition winners. The top players from each of the seven ensembles will be chosen and featured in
the recital, and each soloist will be accompanied by a professional pianist in performances of classical works.
The second performance will be a Holiday Showcase at the St. Elizabeth Seton Church. This concert will
feature MMYO’s 100-member Advanced Orchestra performing works ranging from Klezmer tunes to popular
holiday repertoire. Students and attendees will enjoy a festive holiday experience.
Finally, the third performance will be MMYO’s Rising Stars and Senior Showcase Recital, featuring MMYO’s
seniors. MMYO will return to the Dove Library and will use this recital to showcase and highlight the impact
the graduating seniors have had on the organization. A professional pianist will accompany each performer
and will perform a classical-based repertoire.

Previous Project Success:

With the City of Carlsbad’s support, Mainly Mozart brought an MMYO performance to the St. Elizabeth Seton
church in Carlsbad in 2022. Specifically, this presentation of “Handel’s Messiah” represented a successful

Fiscal Year 2024-25: Arts Projects for Arts
Organizations 6
launch of this new program with a near sell-out audience. Returning to Carlsbad in December 2023, MMYO
presented a Holiday Showcase featuring the Advanced Orchestra in a performance of popular holiday tunes.
The concert also featured two local soprano soloists and an audience sing-along. The concert was completely
sold out and the feedback from attendees was incredible. Many attendees expressed that this concert helped
to jump-start their holiday season. Other indications of success included the opportunity for advanced MMYO
students to perform new repertoire, which was in response to their requests for more frequent and varied
performance opportunities.
PProject Distinction:
What makes this project distinctive?
For over thirty-five years, the Mainly Mozart Youth Orchestra has benefited hundreds of students and regaled
audiences with musical performances across San Diego and Baja. Indeed, Mainly Mozart is the only
organization of its kind offering this suite of Carlsbad-based performances for Carlsbad audiences.
The Mainly Mozart Youth Orchestra’s Solo Competition is unique because it gives each one of the 340
students an opportunity to compete for the chance to perform in the Winners’ Recital. Most youth orchestras
only have a competition for their most advanced students. MMYO believes there is more benefit in allowing
all students to compete, not just the most advanced players. MMYO also boasts a strong family atmosphere,
distinguishing it from other youth orchestras. By featuring and celebrating the graduating seniors at the
Rising Stars & Senior Showcase, MMYO strengthens relationships between soon-to-be alumni, current
students, and community members. MMYO’s Holiday Showcase is a one-of-a-kind event featuring an
audience-involved sing-along, local emerging talent, and a demonstration of an inspiring youth orchestra
performance. This event is the ideal way to ring in the holiday cheer!
Project Goals:
What are the goals (outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals?
As with all MMYO programs, the primary priority is student and parent satisfaction, which is measured
through informal and formal surveys and feedback. MM also considers student musical
advancement/development as a measure of success. Finally, the goal is to meet or exceed audience numbers
from the 2022 and 2023 Carlsbad performances for each 2024-2025 performance, with at least 40% of the
audience coming from the local community.
Target Population:
Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them?
The primary target population will be Carlsbad residents, who will be reached via targeted social media,
eblast marketing, and local media campaigns. Specifically, church communications will inform congregation
members from St. Elizabeth Seton, and library patrons will receive electronic updates from the Dove Library
advertising the program. Additionally, MMYO audiences always include parents and other family members
and friends.

Organization Changes/Challenges/Circumstances:
What special circumstances, challenges or changes have affected your organization? What impact has this had on
your organization?
Mainly Mozart is still recovering from the impacts of the pandemic, when the organization affirmed its
commitment to the community by finding innovative ways to offer live performances (drive-in and outdoor
concerts in creative venues). During the height of pandemic lockdowns, Mainly Mozart found ways to produce
concerts to reach socially isolated San Diegans -- quintuple the usual number -- and created a safe format to
allow the youth orchestra to continue gathering for rehearsals. All of this came at great financial risk and,
unfortunately, limited access to highly needed government relief funds.
Although MM’s financial outlook has improved significantly since then, the organization is aware of how the
soaring costs of essential goods and services are taking a bigger chunk out of family budgets and, therefore,
less wiggle room financially to share in the arts. Because of this challenge, MM is increasing its fundraising
efforts and ensuring that most concerts remain free or accessibly priced.
