Ozark Festival Orchestra

Ozark Festival Orchestra

The Ozark Festival Orchestra is an independent, self-sustaining, established orchestra residing in a small city in the Ozarks --- Monett, Missouri, population 7,396.[1] The ensemble of 40 members commissions new works, features regional and national guest soloists, and hosts a Young Artists competition annually.[2] It is uncommon for an American city of this size to host an orchestra, although many small American towns do have a community band.

The OFO completed its 30th season on May 16, 2010; this was the 10th season for the current conductor/musical director, Ken Meisinger.[3] Former musical directors include Dr. Jordan Tang [4] and Dr. David Goza [5].
