Origin

Ithacasori began in April 2025 as a student-led music festival in Ithaca, New York. Over four days, the festival brought together musicians, ensembles, and audiences to celebrate music across genres and cultures. It was a space where students, community members, and visiting artists could share performances, collaborate, and discover new sounds. What started as a local celebration quickly revealed a larger vision: music as a bridge between people, cultures, and communities.

Evolution to Business: Following the success of the festival, Ithacasori grew beyond a single event into an ongoing initiative. Today, it operates as a business dedicated to presenting concerts, cultural collaborations, and creative projects year-round. Our goal is to carry forward the spirit of the original festival: curiosity, exchange, and community, while building sustainable opportunities for artists and audiences to connect. From intimate local performances to large-scale programs, Ithacasori continues to explore how music can inspire dialogue, connection, and shared experience.
