Who We Are
The Music Company Orchestra, incorporated in 1974, is a 60-piece volunteer community orchestra. Its members come from all walks of life and many different backgrounds. Conducted by Dr. Gerald Lanoue, the orchestra plays a wide range of classical and pops repertoire. The MCO is dedicated to bringing the excitement of live orchestral music to audiences of all ages and economic backgrounds, and enthusiastically plays venues throughout the greater Capital Region, ranging from traditional concert halls to public parks, community events, schools, retirement centers and nursing homes. The MCO performs most concerts free to the public, and also offers scholarships to musically-inclined students at three regional high schools. The MCO is a not-for-profit organization.
