| ==To answer guestions of Chamber orchestra and incorporation== | |||
| The company has recently joined the Greenwich Village Chelsea Chamber of Commerce and has just received its notice of incorporation from New York State. The co-producers are in the process of filing for nonprofit status to be able to receive tax-deductible contributions. | |||
| Until Chelsea Opera gets its tax designation, the company is being sponsored by PRISM Chamber Orchestra, which has 501c-3 status. Tax-deductible contributions may be made to the company by checks made payable to PRISM Chamber Orchestra with Chelsea Opera Project noted on the memo line. | |||
| This information comes from the article that is already a footnote on this page. #3 | |||
| http://www.thevillager.com/villager_89/anightattheopera.html | |||
| Additionally now they do have tax exempt status as is clearly shown on their website on their "support" page. | |||
| Chelsea Opera, Inc. is a tax-exempt public charity as described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and, as such, is legally authorized to accept contributions which are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law. Checks should be made payable to Chelsea Opera and sent to Chelsea Opera, P.O. Box 277 – Old Chelsea Station, New York NY 10011. | |||
| ---------------- | |||
| The next issue that comfirms that they do have their own Chamber orchestra: | |||
| I can only find a copy of this article is in the Chelsea archives, but it is a photo copy of the exact article and not just rewritten text. But yes, It is their own group of musicians that performs with their opera productions. And this article is also already footnoted in the Misplaced Pages page for Chelsea Opera. #1 | |||
| Arts & Entertainment Theater section from Town and Village Thursday, Feb, 10, 2005, mentions the "Chelsea Chamber Orchestra under the direction of Carmien Aufiero" | |||

I and our team, can't do what you are requring. I tried and continue to fail. I can't give my life to this, so go ahead and delete this, as you've already deleted our other stubs - Maryann Mootos, Victoria Ulanova, and Jorge Novoa. Makes no sense when I see some of the other less notable people who have pages on this site are left alone. When things seem stacked against us and rules don't seem constent for all, I figure it's not the place for us or our artists..Too bad..Bad PR for Wikpedia for all our contacts too, who after seeing this, will not even try. We feel the same for the mess that has been made of Daniel Rodriguez page too. Would have been a win win for all. But not to be, at least by us.. Adios.

Ok, all the references are now listed. Operadog 13:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
- This article needs references that aren't directly from or connected with the Chelsea Opera Company. The rules here are quite clear. If those sources aren't provided, the article will end up deleted. | Mr. Darcy talk 15:58, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I have a list of sources. Please consider placing them on page to allow this opera company to keep page. Greekvoice 18:44, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Heartfelt request for Chelsea Opera article to remain
Dear Sir, Mr. Darcy. I am a reader of this article who has never edited it. How can we help to make it a better article and have it remain. Please don't delete it. This is a respected New York Opera company, that merits its place on Misplaced Pages.LaeNamorada 22:01, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
added information
Just added two footnotes or references about Chelsea participants, but not sure if those should go as footnotes or as external links? Please change as appropriate. Thank youBroadwaydad 06:24, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Wikified introduction
Please discuss any changes you feel may be necessary before making them. Also, do opera companies have Artistic directors, or is this what is called the producer in an opera company? Is the chamber orchestra an house orchestra, or do they work with a specific chamber orchestra at times or with various ones? What types of "immobile citizens" do you mean, house bound or institutionalized? KP Botany 21:12, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
I ony find the titles of "producer" in the website administration infor. for this company, and no use of term artist director. I don't have the answers to questions of specific chamber orcherstra and what types fo immobile citizens. Perhaps someone else will? Broadwaydad 00:46, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
Whoops, I made some edits before I came to the discussion page, in regard to KP Botanys'reguest to discuss any changes. I know that the previous can be retrieved, but I'll wait and see if my edit's are ok. I did a few that he suggested on another page, such as spelling out the entire name of USO, etc.. Will check here first next time. Leah01 05:06, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
