In Wednesday’s (10/1) Volume One (Eau Claire, Wisconsin), McKenna Scherer writes, “The Chippewa Valley Symphony Orchestra (CVSO) has carved a legacy all its own in the community since its founding in 1975. With longtime leader Nobuyoshi Yasuda’s 33rd and final CVSO season kicking off at the end of September, so too is the search for his replacement. For the first time in over 30 years, the orchestral organization’s key leadership role—music director and conductor—is open. Formally announced on Sept. 30, CVSO is now accepting applications for the role through Nov. 1, 2025, with a projected timeline aiming to select finalists in February 2026. The role—a part-time, independent contractor position … will report directly to the board of directors while working closely with the executive director and board president. CVSO performs in the state-of-the-art RCU Theatre at Pablo Center at the Confluence and maintains a strong, longterm partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire’s Music and Theatre Arts Department…. The organization’s typical concert season runs September-May with five total concert cycles (three classical concerts, one holiday pops concert, one educational concert performed twice in one day). About 100 total musicians per season are guided by the music director and conductor.”
