The 40th Anniversary Celebration concert honoring CVRO’s incredible legacy is planned to feature the Candide Overture by Leonard Bernstein and the Sibelius Violin Concerto featuring soloist Francesca Anderegg as well as a specially commissioned premiere by Northfield composer Reinaldo Moya called Minnesota Suite, made possible by a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council.
