icoThe Ithaca Community Orchestra, with Music Director Diana Geiger and assistant conductor James Mick, and the Museum of the Earth will team up to present a spring concert at the First Baptist Church in DeWitt Park on Saturday, April 27th, at 4 pm. The concert will feature Zachary Sweet playing Dvorak’s Cello Concerto in B minor.

The orchestra will also perform 'Wails for Whales', an arrangement of a traditional folk song by Max Buckholtz, and Beethoven’s 1st Symphony. Warren Allmon, Director of the Paleontological Research Institution, will also give a pre-concert talk on the up-coming permanent glacier exhibit.

The ICO gleans its membership from all corners of the community.  The orchestra allows non-professional musicians an opportunity to perform in an ensemble twice a year. It has worked with many prominent local guest soloists and composers from Ithaca College and Cornell University and the surrounding area.
