What’s next for CVRO…
About the Orchestra
The Cannon Valley Regional Orchestra (CVRO) was founded in 1979 by conductor Paul Niemisto as a program of the Northfield Arts Guild. CVRO is a diverse group of volunteer musicians performing symphonic music, drawn together by our love of rehearsing and performing this fine repertoire. Anyone with talent, experience, and motivation is welcome to join us, from exceptional twelve-year-olds to octogenarians.
CVRO players come from twenty-two communities: Apple Valley, Blaine, Bloomington, Cannon Falls, Dundas, Eagan, Faribault, Farmington, Lake City, Lonsdale, Montgomery, Nerstrand, New Prague, Northfield, Owatonna, Prior Lake, Red Wing, St. Paul, Stanton, Warsaw, Webster, West Concord. If you are interested in joining the group and have not participated before, please email paul.niemisto@gmail.com for more information. Past participants are always welcome to play with the group. We are grateful for your support.
Mission: The CVRO was founded to help create and promote orchestral music culture in the Cannon Valley communities of Southeast Minnesota.
