FolkLib Index - Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra

(last updated .12-18-2008)

          The Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra "Official" Web site is now on-line. These pages were provided and maintained by the FolkLib Index Hosting Service as the OSO's "temporary" Web site from from 3-28-2001 until 6-24-2005.

          Bold links on these pages go to OSO Official pages and other off-site Web sites. Other links go to important OSO historical information on pages here which has not been installed on the Official site yet. At least as of 08-24-2007, the Official site has no links to any of its historical information maintained here.

OSO History: The History of the Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra by Laura (Salzwedel) Rooney, member OSO
          [Webmaster's note: I first saw this history in the program booklet for the Javier Calderon and the Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra concerts on February 17-18, 2001. It was written sometime during the tenure of Jun Wang (1997 - 5/2002), Conductor, and an updated version used to be available on the OSO Web site.]
