    The Israel Symphony Orchestra Rishon LeZion was founded in 1988 by the Rishon LeZion mayor Meir Nitzan and municipality, and since 1989 the ISO has also served with great success as the resident orchestra of the Israeli Opera. The ISO conductors were Shimon Cohen, Noam Sheriff, Asher Fisch and Mendi Rodan. The current Musical Director and chief conductor is Dan Ettinger (who also serves as assistant to Daniel Barenboim in Berlin) and, since 1999 Ehud Gross has been the Director General. Within a short period of time, the ISO found itself at the top of the artistic pyramid amidst the leading and innovative musical institutes in Israel. Of the variety of musical cultures, the musicians represent, ISO has created a “personal” sound, which is warmly accepted by audiences and music critics alike. The ISO offers its audience a variety of symphonic works, vocal works and operas from all the musical eras.
