It has been thrilling to see how many of our fans are joining us in making our first recording project. Our backer numbers increase visibly each day! Because we are running an all-or-nothing campaign, our project’s main risk is that it won’t be possible if it isn’t funded in full by Dec. 1. Thanks to several generous (and early) donors, though, we are well on track to meeting our goal, and with a wonderfully exciting start last week. Here are some illuminating numbers:

•     Within two hours of our campaign’s beginning on Nov. 1, backers had donated a total of over $2000 dollars!
•     As of today, Nov. 7, we have 18 backers, who will be receiving free tracks, CDs, posters, and written recognition as friends and sponsors. One of our project’s friends even gets to name a piece for us to arrange and play.
•     We have raised $3146 toward our goal of $9000 by Dec. 1. That’s 35% of our project funding (accomplished in 23% of our 30-day duration).
