The Gatherings Album Covers

Please Help Support The Gatherings Concert Series by adding some Great Music to your collection. Proceeds from the sale of our continuing series of live recordings made before enthusiastic, informed audiences go to support the efforts of CIMA of PA - the IRS recognized, non-profit, all-volunteer organization which oversees The Gatherings Concert Series in Philadelphia.

Along with our concert download albums we are now offering both of our physical anthology CDs online. For years these discs were known only to concert attendees, but are now available to all on our Bandcamp page under the "Merch" tab.

Please learn more about albums meant to support The Gatherings Concert Series by accessing: thegatheringsconcertseries.bandcamp.com

The Gatherings Thank You!

The Gatherings Concert Series and The Corporation for Innovative Music and Arts of PA have worked very hard to build an international reputation for producing provocative and daring works of artistic excellence. Donations from the community have a direct and important impact on this work.

We keep the price of admission low to encourage new and diverse audiences to experience the wealth of music at The Gatherings. As a non-profit organization, our ticket prices do not cover the entire cost of producing some of the highest quality concert experiences in the country. We rely on contributors to help us continue our tradition of quality programming. Thank You for your kind support!

The Corporation for Innovative Music and Arts of Pennsylvania

The Corporation for Innovative Music and Arts of Pennsylvania was established on 7 January 2002. "CIMA of PA" is the all-volunteer, non-profit organization responsible for organizing and producing The Gatherings Concert Series. The basic mission of CIMA is to bring innovative music concerts to the public and further the advancement of this artform.

On 18 April 2003, CIMA filed Form 1023 (Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code) with the Internal Revenue Service. On 9 February 2004, the IRS determined that The Corporation for Innovative Music and Arts of Pennsylvania is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3). Donations to CIMA of PA are deductible as charitable contributions on the donor's federal income tax return.

 


The Gatherings CD Compilation

The Gatherings 2On 22 April 2006 CIMA of PA released a 2CD anthology made possible through the generous support of 20 individuals from The Gatherings community. The Gatherings volume 2 features excerpts from pre-year 2000 performances in The Gatherings Concert Series. All of the music included on The Gatherings volume 2 was recorded live in Philadelphia at events produced by the all-volunteer staff of The Gatherings Concert Series. The artists included on this disc are among the most recognized and talented in their field and have donated their music to help further the cause advocated by the series. Please access The Gatherings volume 2 CD webpage for full details.
