Review for East Texas Symphonic Band Inc, Longview, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have attended the East Texas Symphonic Band concerts for years and enjoyed the varied musical selections immensely. Some of the pieces they play have me tapping my foot, others bring tears to my eyes, and others make my chest swell with pride. And the fact that the concerts are free means anyone and everyone can come and have that same experience.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

As a member of the audience I enjoy the great concerts. Helping in the lobby I hear many positive comments from concert audiences. As a board member I get to read the many positive comments from the donors.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The generosity of the musicians who volunteer their time for rehearsals and performances. The generosity of the patrons who enjoy the music and appreciate the efforts of the musicians enough to donate.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Advertise in more places to entice a larger and more varied audience. Find ways to bring the music to folks that can't attend the concerts.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every month
