Survey Information

In 2009-2010 we asked anyone who was interested to fill our a survey related to the organ demonstration recitals in order to help us in our planning for the future. We indicated that when the results were collated, we would put them online. Below is a summary of the survey question responses, along with links to the open-ended responses. If you have any comments or suggestions, please contact either Jan Kraybill or Pam Robison.
  • Summary of Organ Demo Survey questions
     
  • What are the areas of strength in the organ demonstration recitals? What programs or recitalists have been most attractive?
     
  • What are the areas where the organ demonstration recitals seem to fall short in meeting the needs and desires of our guests?
     
  • If the church were to consider a different recital schedule in an attempt to be more convenient for our guests, what would be the ideal schedule?
     
  • If you think the demonstration recitals should be discontinued, please tell us why.
     
  • Are we currently providing programming that inspires interest in the organs as a part of the church's message, mission, and identity? How could we improve in this area?
     
  • Where were the respondents from?
     
  • Additional information and suggestions
 
If you think the demonstration recitals should be discontinued, please tell us why.

They should not be

NO!!

Absolutely do not feel that they should be discontinued at all!

I do not think they should be discontinued

I love to hear both organs--two marvelous instruments. I miss the weekly organ broadcasts

n/a

NO NO NO! They SHOULD NOT be discontinued! This would only further the decline of the organ on the musical scene.

Once again do not stop these.

I cannot believe the church is even CONSIDERING canceling the recitals.

I would be very hurt if the demos were to be discontinued due to the organ is an amazing instrument to the beauty to the tonal colors within each stop family and I think EVERYONE should be able to here these magnificent organs.

I think it would be a shame to discontinue something so interesting and a terrible waste/stewardship of the organs.

The organ is a historical instrument and it is not only irrelevant for modern ministries to a modern commmunity, but it also perpetuates our inability to offer relevant and DIVERSE music ministry to a diverse world. We have full-time staff to provide this out-dated ministry that could be concentrating on a variety of music/worship arts.

They are one-sided in that they present only one instrument.

I don't think the recitals should be discontinued necessarily, but I do think they should be more enjoyable.

I'm not sure. I personally would not like to see them discontinued, but I am interested to see what others think, and we should take all points of view into consideration.

Keep the organ recitals--maybe twice a day during summer!
