MUSIC ON THE GREEN
JUNE 5, 2022
7:00pm MARGE DODD STAGE INDIAN HILLS COMMUNITY COLLEGE (Get Directions) Under the direction of some friends of David Sharp |
The Ottumwa Symphony Orchestra announces several changes to Music on the Green this season. In June of 2010, David Sharp stepped in to conduct the MOTG concert for the first time, and has been arranging, planning and conducting this concert ever since. This year, we need a little help from David’s friends to make it happen! David has been experiencing some major health issues the last few months, and his Doctor has informed him that the next step in this battle is a stem cell transplant. This procedure has been scheduled for May 20, and will require a 3-4 week hospital stay as part of the plan for complete recovery.
David Sharp has friends. Lots of his friends have conducting experience. Some of them play in the Ottumwa Symphony Orchestra, several of them are on the Board of Directors, and they all want to contribute. Mark your calendar for this ‘tribute concert’ on June 5, 2022. In the time leading up to his transplant, David had been his typical busy self, helping select and arrange music, making sure it gets into the right hands and makes our conductors happy, and managing all the little details that make this concert a crowd favorite.
We’ll introduce our guest directors to you briefly at this time, and in greater detail as time goes on. Thanks to Patty Babb, Steve Miller, Pam DeBoer, Henry Weberpal, Tom Shadonix, Mark Heidel, Tom McNamer and Norman Brooks.
June 5 at 7:00 P.M., please join us at the Marge Dodd Stage on the IHCC campus for this seasonal favorite. Bring a picnic, your favorite beverage, a comfortable chair and, of course, your friends and family. We are so grateful to these Great Eight friends of Dave Sharp and the Ottumwa Symphony Orchestra, and will be proud to share more about them and their music!
In case of rain or inclement weather, the event will be moved indoors to the Hellyer Student Life Center right next to the stage. Should we have to cancel, the public will be notified by 3:00 P.M.
