Symphony d'Oro (formerly the Rancho Cordova Civic Light Orchestra) celebrates its sixth birthday in January 2019. The symphony has evolved with a new name but remains the pride and joy of Rancho Cordova orchestra-lovers. These accomplished volunteer musicians are growing and evolving before our very eyes. Conductor Pete Nowlen says the orchestra performs “beautiful music presented in interesting and accessible ways,” and with 60 musicians is making its mark, playing familiar music in unusual settings as they seek new ways to appreciate fine music.
