Buffalo Community Orchestra

Buffalo Community Orchestra (BCO) was born on July 9th, 1995 as several talented and dedicated musicians and community members gathered at the home of Mary Ellen Lundsten for an evening of food, music, fellowship and a lot of planning. Buffalo, a small community west of the Twin Cities Metropolitan area, had begun to establish itself as a strong supporter of the arts, and what better to add to the community than an orchestra! A few short months later on November 26, 1995, under the direction of Mary Roberts Wilson, 39 local musicians graced the stage. Handel, Beethoven, Andrew Lloyd Weber and even a little polka was played at the Buffalo Community Orchestra world premier!
