What is the World Civic Orchestra?The World Civic Orchestra is a gathering of musicians, both professional and amateur, from around the world who have come together to celebrate the world in its differences and similarities through the platform of music. The World Civic Orchestra is a non-profit organization which was incorporated in November 2008 in the state of New York.Why is there a need for a World Civic Orchestra?As civilization has entered the digital age, a culture of information sharing and accessibility has transformed the shape of the world. Easy access to information has opened our eyes to parts of the world that had previously been out of sight. Suddenly the ends of the earth don’t seem so far away or so foreign. Unfortunately, as indicated by the current unrest in international affairs, being informed does not necessarily entail understanding. And so during this era of information sharing and international awareness, the world finds itself in a divisive state. The lines of religion, culture, economic status and political ideologies have thickened and become harder to cross.
