Symphony Orchestras
Five By Design... Beyond Performance
Five By Design’s Kennedy Center debut with the National Symphony Orchestra was “one of the best NSO pops programs of the season.”
When considering the thousands of pops artists available for programming, one name has risen above and beyond the expectations of orchestra presenters and audiences... Five By Design.
For 15 years, Five By Design has paid attention to the details of creating successful pops performances. From contract and orchestrations to the rehearsal and final strike, Five By Design covers every aspect of production.
With the advent of the internet, Five By Design has applied the new rules of marketing and pr to blogs and social sites such as Facebook and MySpace. Googling interest groups will send patrons directly to your box office. Five By Design’s advance team will promptly supply you with your every need from press releases and b-roll to television interviews and pristine orchestra scores. The artists are continually working to provide orchestras with the best materials and performance, all at a fee that will provide your orchestra with a profitable bottom line.
Featuring the creative talents of Lorie Carpenter-Niska, Sheridan Zuther, Kurt Niska, Michael Swedberg, and Terrence Niska, Five By Design has developed long-lasting relationships with more than 200 symphony orchestras. As the producers of Radio Days, Club Swing, Stay Tuned, and A Winter’s Evening, the vocal quintet personifies the highest values in creating a musical theatre experience for their symphony clients. Aside from staged productions, Five By Design focuses upon vocal harmony in a variety of musical genres to create programming specifically designed for your orchestra and audience.
The Charleston Daily Mail heralded Five By Design’s performance as “flawless entertainment”. Five By Design goes beyond performance, developing meaningful relationships with audiences, conductors, musicians, and administrators. We invite you to consider Five By Design for your 2010-2011 season.
Five By Design... Beyond Performance
BACK TO THE BASICS
Let's get back to the basics with POPS. The reason symphony patrons are attracted to a pops concert is... to see and hear your orchestra. That's not to say celebrity performers are not an attraction, but financial considerations are certainly a priority when committees deliberate over which artist to program.
Five By Design has been privileged to perform with more than 200 orchestras because they respond to the needs of the musicians, conductors, audience, and staff. Whether it's quality orchestrations, an efficient rehearsal, sound reinforcement, discussing innovative ideas with marketing departments, or open and courteous communication, Five By Design has built its reputation upon working with orchestras.
FIVE BY DESIGN'S MISSION
Our mission is building trust with your audience and orchestra while experiencing the joy of making music. So whether it's programming one of Five By Design's musical theatre productions, contracting the quintet as a guest artist, or creating a project from scratch, Five By Design can fulfill your needs with a smile while sweetening your bottom line.
If you've never booked Five By Design or if you haven't programmed them in recent seasons, give us a call at 651.335.5466 and let's renew the friendship of creating music together.
