Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, can you make Time for Three?

As the semester draws to a close, the Cornell Orchestras are ending the season with a couple of exciting collaborations!

On Friday (11/13) at 7:30pm ET in Bailey Hall, the CCO will present a live-to-picture performance of the 1920 silent film Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. This performance features an original score by a team of film composers led by Sheldon Mirowitz performed in synchronization with the film, generously supported by the Cornell Cinema, Cornell Council for the Arts, and Wharton Studio Museum.

Additionally, the CSO will perform the prelude to Wagner’s Die Meistersinger and Puts’s Contact on Saturday (11/21) at 3:00pm ET in Bailey Hall. Be sure not to miss Grammy Award-winning artists Time for Three! This concert is co-presented with the Dallas Morse Coors Concert Series.

Support the Orchestras!

The Cornell Orchestras rely on the generosity of our friends, alumni, and community to sustain our mission of artistic excellence, education, and outreach. Your donation directly supports our students and helps fund essential needs, from performance and rehearsal expenses to guest artist collaborations, instrument maintenance, and future touring opportunities.

Your support also helps make transformative experiences possible. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we were able to travel to Boston in January 2025, where our musicians performed at the New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall, led workshops with students at Phillips Academy Andover, and participated in masterclasses with members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. These experiences deepened our musicians’ artistry and fostered meaningful community connections.

Looking ahead, we aim to continue creating opportunities that inspire both our students and the communities we reach, whether through on-campus performances, outreach programs, or future tours that showcase the incredible dedication of our members.

Cornell Orchestras alumni have cited our past tours to Taiwan, Argentina, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Germany, and most recently Boston, as some of the most impactful experiences of their Cornell careers. We need your support to continue providing this valuable opportunity for our students and communities!

Thank you for supporting the Cornell Orchestras and our mission to promote artistic excellence, collegiality, and a lifelong engagement with music!
