About This Cause

Founded in 1982 by John Eells, FVSO is a non-profile all-volunteer civic orchestra. As one of Connecticut’s premier civic orchestras, the Farmington Valley Symphony Orchestra presents 4-5 classical concerts each year, in addition to popular holiday and summer pops concerts. Its repertoire consists of orchestral war horses like Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky, along with lesser known and contemporary works. Players come from a wide assortment of backgrounds and occupations mostly from Greater Hartford and the Farmington River Valley. In 2014, the orchestra selected Jonathan Brennand as its new Music Director after an exhaustive year long search from over 60 applicants. He is the second Music Director following in the footsteps of John Eells, who retired in 2013.
