“Our season opener features RPO principal strings – help us welcome our new Principal Second Violinist and Principal Violist. The charming selections of the first half will be followed by Dvorak’s luscious and evocative Viola Quintet, written while the Czech composer spent time in Iowa during the summer of 1893 just after completing his beloved American String Quartet.” -Juliana Athayde and Erik Behr, Artistic Directors
