The Cayuga Chamber Orchestra will hold its second Chamber Series Concert of the 2023-24 season, Mozart and Schumann, a program featuring gorgeous trios by CCO musicians and friends.
The CCO was founded in 1976 and is officially designated “Ithaca’s Orchestra.” Each season includes an Orchestral Series, Chamber Music Series, a Holiday concert, free Family Concerts, and the long-standing Willard Daetsch Youth Outreach Program, which earned the 2015 Yale Distinguished Music Educator award. In 2017, the CCO added a Youth Orchestra, which offers a high quality symphony orchestra experience for youth in Ithaca and the Finger Lakes region of New York State.
The concert will showcase musicians, Sarah Chandler (clarinet), Kyle Armbrust (viola), Charis DiMaras (piano), John Lathwell (oboe), Taylor Smith (bassoon), Andrew Zhou (piano), Christina Bouey (violin), Rosie Elliott (cello), and Yoon Lee (piano).
We are eagerly anticipating our next Chamber Series concert. Our musicians performed to a sold out house at our November Chamber Series concert, at the First Unitarian Church. We also nearly sold out our performance of Handel’s Messiah at Ithaca College’s Ford Hall in December. There is nothing like walking out onstage as a musician and seeing a house full of enthusiastic audience members. Our subscriber base is 1/3 larger this year, and we are finding more and more new people giving our concerts a try. We invite you to make this your first CCO experience!
Managing Director, Sarah Chandler
