The Ethos Consortium is committed to producing the finest professional choral and orchestral music in service of a changing community.  Each Ethos concert is presented as a dedicated fundraising event in partnership with a selected area nonprofit.  The Ethos Consortium selects the finest concert venues and employs the most talented professional musicians, ensuring a performance of unrivaled artistic excellence.  The partner nonprofit mobilizes its board, staff, patrons and constituents to sell every available ticket.  Ethos underwrites the full expense of each concert, so the nonprofit partner can realize the total revenue from all ticket sales. 

Ethos has raised the baton on a new level of professional musical performance for Charlotte and raised the bar for funding area charitable organizations.  This is music with a mission!

            Consider what Ethos does for Charlotte’s musical life.  In addition to presenting four to six annual performances of the highest musical quality, Ethos helps to sustain local talent by increasing employment opportunities for the area’s finest musicians.  These talented performers now have a new source of supplemental income, paid at competitive rates.  Charlotte and surrounding areas can retain the most accomplished musicians and attract new talent to the region. 

            Ethos’s gift to the nonprofit community is unparalleled.  Charitable organizations seeking a prominent, premiere fundraising event for strategic projects now have the opportunity to partner with Ethos to present a memorable musical evening.  Nonprofits can devote their full energies to friend-raising and fundraising, leaving event production to Ethos. 

            Great music for great causes - it’s the original win-win for everyone involved.  Music lovers get more and better music.  Charitable organizations fund projects that matter.  The ultimate winner is the Charlotte-Mecklenburg region, whose reputation will be enhanced throughout the nation and the world and whose community fabric will be strengthened by Ethos’s charitable partners.
