"'" OCT 19119 City Fine Arts Commission 300 North "D" Street San Bernardino, CA 92418 Dear Sirs/Madames, The Inland Master Chorale, performing division of the Inland Choral Music Education, Inc., organized in 1980, is a nonprofit organization of about 80 mixed voices from throughout the Inland Empire. Exemption from taxation under section 50lCc)3 of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 2370ld of the California Revenue and Taxation Code has been obtained. The Chorale has performed with the Inland Empire Symphony, Redlands Symphony, Pasadena Master Chorale, and other accomplished musical organizations in this area. In May 1985, the Chorale entered its first music competition and was awarded top honor in the adult group division of the Johnny Mann All American Choral Festival. Also, after review of audition tapes from over 60 choral groups, the American Choral Directors ASSOCiation selected the Inland Master Chorale to perform at its convention in Anaheim, California on February 26, 1988. In July 1989, the Chorale represented the United States at international festivals in Bournemouth, England and Llangollen, Wales, capturing "choir of the world" title at Bournemouth and finishing third out of 18 competitors in the mixed chorale category at Llangollen. The Chorale I s main purpose is to provide an opportunity to study then present in public concerts high quality choral works from all periods and styles. The Inland Master Chorale is one of the top mixed voice group in the Inland Empire for prOViding this COIlIllunity with high quality choral music. Applicants for membership are accepted regardless of age, sex, race, creed, or physical handicap as long as they succeSSfully pass an audition. The 1989/90 concert season includes exciting and challenging choral works deSigned to meet the higher level training needs of Chorale members while fulfilling the expectations of an expanding area audience. However, in accepting the challenge of meeting these needs, the Chorale faces higher operational costs which it sincerely hopes will be partially supported by interested arts foundations such as yours. The Chorale is considered to be a very v,aluable part of the performing arts in this area, but as with most nonprofit performing arts groups, ticket sales alone do not cover concert costs. Therefore, we respectfully request you approve a grant in the amount of $2500 for partial funding of our NOVember 4, 1989 concert of the "Mozart Requiem" and "When Icicles Hang" by John Rutter at Sturges AUditorium in San Bernardino. :I;Yi Lb:JI- GARY E.
