About the event

The 33rd Annual Founders Day Concert in the Park
Sunday, September 14
2:00PM
DeWitt Park, Downtown Ithaca

Join us for an exhilarating afternoon of bold fanfares, heartfelt melodies, and classic Americana as the Ithaca College Wind Ensemble brings to life five vibrant works from the heart of the American concert band tradition in celebration of our annual Founder's Day concert.

The program opens with Robert Jager's "Esprit de Corps," a rousing tribute to spirit and unity. Next, experience the soulful lyricism of "Adoration" by Florence Price-one of the first African American women to gain national recognition as a composer-arranged beautifully for winds. Walter Piston's "Tunbridge Fair" offers a brilliant and energetic musical picture of a New England fairground, followed by the joyful, whistling march "On the Mall" by Edwin Franko Goldman. The afternoon concludes with the cinematic sweep of "The Cowboys Overture," John Williams' beloved score arranged for concert band.
