The Island Symphony Orchestra is an all-volunteer, Long Island-wide
orchestra whose members range in age from their 30s to their 90's! The
group was foundedin 1971 by Paul Rudoff to provide a way for retired teachers, and amateur and professional musicians to maintain their skills in an orchestral setting. From the
original group, the ISO has grown to approximately 55 members with varying backgrounds and musical abilities. Each has different reasons for playing in the orchestra, However all have a love of the standard classical repertoire.
The Island Symphony Orchestra regularly performs a variety of concerts. It has performed for students at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church School (in Bayshore) during
Music in the Schools Month, at the Harborfields Middle School in Greenlawn, and elsewhere. Annually, the orchestra performs for elementary school students in the Brentwood School District. These concerts always feature a recorder group from a local elementary school. These recorder groups, accompanied by the orchestra, have performed selections by Bach and others that were arranged by Brentwood’s Director of Music, Dr. Joel Ratner.
Currently under the musical direction of Howard Cinnamon, the Island Symphony Orchestra performs free concerts all over Long Island, in a variety of venues, including churches, libraries, schools, and colleges. The orchestra may also be booked for private functions and charity events PLEASE CONTACT US!
