OXFORD CHAMBER MUSIC FOUNDATION UMtrED TRUSTEES. REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2022 Objectivès and adivities The C(Mnp8ny is govemed by its MemoTandurn and Arli(les of As$(￿latt0n. The principal objed of the Company is stated a5 folk)ws in the Memorandum of Asgxiation.. "The Company is estsblished to pr(xnole. maintain. improve. and advance edUcal￿n by the encouragement of the arts, in pathcular but not exdusively music, and to fomulate, prepare and eslablish schemes therefor, provided that all objecls of the Company shall be of a charttable nature." Activltles in the year Following the 'falkAY' year of 2020. wrth the Covid-19 pandemic wevenling any concerts, we were delighted to be able to hold a Fesbval again in 2021, albeit wtth Signif￿nI restriclions on audience numbers, which caused 8 substantial lall in our income levd and gave us new ¢j￿IlengeS accordingty. All the events were presented extremely safely and comments from audbence members confitmed that they fett very safe and that all precauts.ons had been tsken with great care. This was a testament to our team who managed the events. induding volunteers were inued&Ay gerwous wilh theif time. The 2021 Festival ran from 28 September to 4 October and the Festival theme was'Transcendence'. Composers ranged from Beethoven to Part and the final concert was a Schools, (y)ncert in collaboration wth D'overbroeck's School, which I[￿uded a p&fomiance ofthe Nwnniro pie( of the OCMF ComtM)siiion Competition 2021. Since we are an annual Festiva]. not beiThJ able to perform" it in 2020 due to lockdowns and Ihe pandemic meant we experien￿ a slight wane in inlerest from our usual supporters. However. subsequent feedback demonstraled the interest and desi￿ for us to present these concerts. and how much Ihe audience had missed our presence in Oxford. Some audience fflem￿rs saKJ these were the rrK)St memordbSe perfoTmances the 20-year history of the Festsvd. Presenting Ihe event during the pandemic meant we lo tske on mote staff than usual to handle all the extra Wofk, so our costs were higher than usual. They induded a buffef in case some key staff members fell ill just before or during the Festival, so there were team tnembers on hand who were already briefed on the project who could easily step in to fill the ro￿ without any issues occurring. AU staff and fftusicians were tested. for Covvj every day and there V￿re no cases amongst the team during the rehearsal and Festival period. This was a very satisfying oulcome for us. and a testament to the planning Ihat had to go in to ensuring averyone's safety. The 2022 Festival is being held in D￿rnber and will te repcrted on next year. OCMF remains immensety grateful to all the Trusts. Fwndations. businesses and educational establishments. together with Our Patrons, Angels and Friends who ￿ntinUed to suptth us financially during this mosl difficu5t peri(Ki.
