ORQUESTRA SIMFÒNICA DEL VALLÈS<br />

Orquestra Simfònica del Vallès (OSV) is a reality which has been taking music to people’s<br />

hearts since 1987 (this year we celebrate our 35 th birthday!). Emotions are our forte, and<br />

in order to communicate them, we increasingly try to get closer to our audience and encourage<br />

them to participate. Furthermore, we try to innovate in the presentation of our<br />

concerts and our way of making music, and we are working very hard to develop our compromise<br />

in quality with our community, from the city of Sabadell, which is our base, to the<br />

whole world. Co-founders of Fundació Òpera Catalunya, we were born as an opera symphony<br />

orchestra becoming, one year later, a private company where musicians and management<br />

team are employees but also shareholders, a unique and very singular case of a<br />

private orchestra in Spain. We have our own season of concerts in the Palau de la Música<br />

Catalana, “Simfònics al Palau”, a series in co-production with the Palau, which starts the<br />

27 th edition this year, and we make more than 100 symphonic concerts a year all around<br />

Catalonia and Spain. Our main conductors have been: Albert Argudo (1988-1992), Jordi<br />

Mora (1993-1997), Salvador Brotons (1997-2002), Edmon Colomer (2002-2005), David<br />

Giménez Carreras (2006-2009), Rubén Gimeno (2009-2016) and James Ross (2017-2018).<br />

Currently and from 2018 Xavier Puig is our main chief. Following this path of innovation in<br />

musical programmes and formats, within the last years we have been involved in several<br />

Film&Music projects (“Pyscho”, “Riders of the lost Ark”, “Harry Potter and the philosopher’s<br />

stone”, Buster Keaton’s “The General”, “Homage to John Williams”) and other<br />

multimedia shows like “The legend of Zelda” and “Videogames live”, some of them produced<br />

by the OSV and other made for third parties like Live Nation or Proactiv. We are the<br />

Spanish orchestra with the most impact and more followers in social network, with more<br />

than 22.200 followers on Twitter, 19.000 on Facebook, 5.000 on Instagram and, jointly with<br />

Banco Sabadell, we made the flashmob “Som Sabadell”, with almost 90 million visits on<br />

YouTube, the most watched video of a symphonic orchestra on the planet. More info about<br />

as in www.osvalles.com.
