Join us for an afternoon of stirring American band music, presented the old-fashioned way! "Banding Together" Sunday, September 18, 2016 Admission is free. The Friends of Ithaca College cordially invite you to the 2016 Founder's Day Concert in the Park. This year's program, "Banding Together," celebrates and cultivates community. Crafted by conductor Christopher Hughes, it brings together the IC Wind Ensemble and our Ithaca neighbors to enjoy "Molly on the Shore," "Colonel Bogey March," and "America the Beautiful," among other stirring works. And what better venue than DeWitt Park, IC's original quad, to fete the 25th anniversary of this singular series? Grab a blanket or chair and head to the park to mingle with friends, enjoy complimentary refreshments, and delight in band music presented the old-fashioned way. There's no charge, and all ages are welcome! The Founder's Day Concert in the Park commemorates Ithaca College's founding in 1892 as the Ithaca Conservatory of Music and the rich connection between the college and the Ithaca community ever since. For more information about the concert, and requests for special needs, please contact Jessica Fernando at 274-3545 or jfernando@ithaca.edu.
