Da Camera Singers is a 45-year Edmonton choral society directing 77.1% of spending to programs while maintaining 23.7 months of reserves -- above the 16.2-month peer median. Compensation at 49.9% of revenue is flagged as high, but for a performing arts organization with $82,123 in revenue, this likely represents a single music director -- a necessary investment for a choral ensemble.
Our Verdict: A well-established community choir with nearly five decades of continuous operation, healthy reserves, and solid program spending. The compensation ratio reflects the cost of professional artistic direction rather than excess.
