"Our ability to share beautiful music relies entirely on the generosity of individual donors and corporate sponsors," explains Partridge. "Since ticket sales cover only one-third of concert costs, we need the unwavering support and dedication of our donors.

"Thanks to our donors, we're able to provide more free tickets to students and veterans, free live streaming and scholarship programs," explains Partridge. "But, we still need your support.
