We enhance the experience of audience members for classical music concerts through our multi-media program notes by delivering the intricacies of the music to be performed, hence, adding value to each concert. Our product will also be used as a marketing tool to attract new audiences while retain the regulars, boosting ticket sales. The product will be delivered via our orchestral partners to their audiences, with the 117 US orchestras with a budget over $2.5m per year as our primary target. We are pursuing a shared-profit model, and our revenue would be gained through audiences instead of from the institution.
