Gross Revenue Time Series

This section reviews the overall gross revenue numbers for 2002-2010 for the Contemporary Chamber Ensemble. For more detail year by year, including definitions for each category, visit the appendix.

In the period 2002-2010, nearly all of the Ensemble’s income (95.4%) comes from live performance fees, with 2.4% attributed to selling CDs on tour. Starting in 2005, the Ensemble began a relationship with a large independent label and released five records from 2005–2010. Record royalties total just 0.1% of their income during this period, while recording fees for appearing as a guest ensemble on someone else’s record account for 0.4%. In 2010, the Ensemble began formally coaching student chamber music ensembles in an educational partnership with a conservatory, and the teaching income from that year comes from that partnership.
