The OVCO will present a concert of music from around the world titled Capriccio Espangol with award-winning Music Director Matthew Cody conducting a program that will conclude with Rimsky Korsakov’s Cappriccio espangol.

The concert opens with the Overture to Light Cavalry by the Viennese composer of operetta Franz von Suppé. The first half of the performance will also include English composer Ralph Vaughn William’s singularly beautiful work for string instruments Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis. Finland will also be represented on the program with Jean Sibelius’s Karelia Suite.The orchestra is sponsored by the Marion E. Jerome Foundation and The Depot Outlet. Further support is provided by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Iowa Arts Council, which exists within the Iowa Economic Development Authority.
