Three Notch’d Road
Why We Exist
Our mission, as stated in our Articles of Incorporation, is “To promote the arts, including by promoting interest in and appreciation of music of the baroque era, sponsoring live musical performances, and educating audiences regarding baroque music.”
What We Do
Three Notch’d Road’s violinist and Artistic Director, Fiona Hughes, brings top tier, highly acclaimed musicians and vocalists from all over the country to perform with us based on the program being offered. We are proud to be able to attract this level of talent and to provide a unique musical experience which would not otherwise be available here. We play on period instruments and educate our audiences during performances about the music, the composers, our instruments and the baroque era.
At our season series concerts, many of our audience members are over the age of 50, which we feel is an underserved group. We also encourage young listeners by offering these concerts for youth from K through college, for free. In addition, we provide free school concerts to hundreds of children each year. Many of these children have never been exposed to baroque music and find the music and our sometimes unusual instruments to be enjoyable. Finally, we provide free concerts at retirement homes and libraries and collaborate with other professional music groups for some performances.
Who We Serve
Our primary audience includes all individuals who have an interest in baroque music who live within our service area of approximately 75 miles of Charlottesville.
Where We Serve
Why Community Members Support Our Work
Contributions are used primarily to support musician reimbursement and travel and other direct concert expenses. We have an ever-growing list of loyal individual donors, whom we prize, but grant monies are also critical to our success.
Ticket sales and CD sales also contribute to our bottom line, but cannot, by themselves, cover the cost of the level of opportunities we produce for our community.
Baroque music is a beautiful and powerful part of the spectrum of music through history. As the only full time, professional ensemble in central Virginia, we endeavor to provide that unique beauty for the enjoyment of all those who live here.
Contributions are accepted for general operating support and specific concert sponsorship. And..last, but far from least, we always need volunteers for box office duties, assistance with receptions, housing and transport of musicians and numberous other tasks.
