MEMORANDUM
TO: Susan Olsen, Director
Key West Art & Historical Society
(Hand- delivered)
FROM: B G CARTER 1
DATE: July 30, 1993
SUBJECT: Application from Patrons of Bach
for the TDC Cultural Umbrella
Here is the completed application from Patrons of Bach. We seek
$9,000 in TDC funding to assist us in increasing our advertising.
We have nQw completed three full concert seasons and know that the
audiences'have been appreciative. The most common complaint was
the lack of knowledge of the concert. Your help in obtaining
advertising will allow us to overcome this weakness.
Please bear in mind that this work is done solely by unpaid
volunteers. We are proud of the work and wish to share it with
wider audiences. Thank you for letting us be aware of the deadline
and for the opportunity to let more people be aware of the Keys'
appreciation for classical music and the arts.

APPLICATION FOR FUNDING FROM THE
MONROE COUNTY TOURIST DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
CULTURAL UMBRELLA
EVENT:
The five (5) concerts constitute the 1993 -1994 concert season
of Patrons of Bach.
LOCATION:
St. Paul's Episcopal Church (401 Duval Street, Key West). In
the event that renovation and construction impede concerts,
alternate sites are San Carlos Institute and Old Stone Methodist
Church.
DATES:
As stated on attached schedule of 1993 -1994 concert season.
ATTENDANCE:
Regular paid attendance is estimated to average 110 based on
(1) attendance at concerts over past three concert seasons (1990-
91, 1991 -92, 1992 -93) and on (2) assistance from T.D.C.
advertising. For community's benefit, a limited number of reduced
fare and complimentary tickets are set aside for high school
students and the elderly. Total attendance has ranged from a low
of 55 to a high of approximately 320.
IMPACT ON TOURISM:
The excellence of our past three concert season helps polish
the image of the Keys as a place receptive to the arts. As one
attendee from Ohio noted, "classical music is alive and well in Key
West."
Through coordination with the Miami B eaach Society, our concert
season has wider publicity.
Because our concerts typically are held at 8:00 P.M., a
significant number of winter residents stay at hotels in Key West
the night of the concerts.
T.D.C. funding will amplify our advertising orbit which
previously was limited to Key West and its immediate vicinity.
SPONSORING ORGANIZATION:
Patrons of Bach (a not for profit with no paid staff and a
volunteer Board of Directors).

CONTACT: B G Carter (President)
HISTORY OF ORGANIZATION:
Patrons of Bach began in the Spring of 1990 as a spontaneous
and volunteer effort to bring artists of regional and national
prominence to Key West. Patrons emphasized music as a link to the
creation of beauty in the universe.
The first concert was performed at the First United ( "Old
Stone ") Church on March 30, 1990. (See attachments from Focus.)
Since that first performance, three full concert seasons have
confirmed the excellence of the artists. Host -sites have been St.
Paul's Episcopal and Old Stone Methodist Churches, The Fine Arts
Center, and San Carlos Institute.
HISTORY OF EVENTS:
The three completed concert seasons have offered a varied
feast of classical music -- opera and choral voice, string and
brass ensembles, organ and harpsichord, chamber ensembles, and
piano concerts.
The 1993 -1994 season continues this richness with a brass
ensemble, a chamber trio, a string quartet, a piano performance,
and a combined organ and voice concert.
