Orchestra Iowa

The madness continues as Mozart's influence reaches the 20th Century. Schnittke used flavors of Mozart set against his own modern voice. Mysterious and often savage, Mozart's String Quintet in G Minor features two violas. His Prague Symphony is a majestic work of pure power.Founded in April 1921, Orchestra Iowa is recognized as the state's premier symphony orchestra, led under the direction Timothy Hankewich, now in his seventh year as Music Director. 

Founded in 1921, the mission of Orchestra Iowa is "to foster enjoyment of, and support for fine symphonic music through quality performances, education, and community involvement". Its 82 professional musicians perform more than 120 public performances throughout the year, many of which can be heard on Iowa Public Radio and seen on Iowa Public Television. Orchestra Iowa showcases its artistic excellence each season through an accomplished array of classical, ballet, opera, popular, and chamber performances, in addition to extensive community education and involvement.
