Ithaca College

Concluding the season with a triumphant note, the Ithaca College Symphony Orchestra will perform Mahler's epic Symphony No. 1 in D major, known as the "Titan," on Sunday, May 3, at 4:00 p.m. in Ford Hall on the Ithaca College campus. 

Jeffery Meyer will lead the free concert, which will also feature pianist Charis Dimaras in Beethoven's first piano concerto.

Greek concert pianist/conductor Charis Dimaras is gradually becoming recognized as one of the most individual and multifaceted musical talents of his generation. Noted for his diverse activity as solo recitalist, vocal/instrumental chamber music collaborator, orchestra soloist, and conductor of symphonic and operatic repertory, he is equally at home performing the music of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven as he is presenting brand-new works in their world premieres. International critics have repeatedly hailed his virtuoso technique and refined musicality, while his exciting stage presence has thrilled audiences around the world.
