Tribute to the orchestra

In 1977 this orchestra, The Mid-City Community Orchestra, was founded (created) by their premier conductor, Ruth Harris. Years have passed quickly and many alumni members have moved on. However, there are several members who, with loyal devotion and dedication to this art form, have remained active, responsible musicians. It is obvious to our audiences that many performers still hear the voice of a parent, "Time to practice, dear".

...

Though age has taken its toll, these folks arrive at rehearsals each week ready, willing and motivated to accept the challenge of preparing concerts for you, our listening audience. So it is that we are here in your home to perform orchestral literature for your enjoyment.

Excerpted from the concert program('04).
