America\u2019s premier Chamber Orchestra is warming up, and you can feel the current of excitement&#8230; The 33 virtuoso musicians of The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra are warming up to present a concert! The SPCO was formed in 1959. A &#8220;Chamber&#8221; Orchestra is a scaled-down Orchestra without quite as many musicians as a full version. There have been six Music Directors leading since the Orchestra&#8217;s inception, most notably with world-famous Pinchas Zukerman at the helm in the 1980s. The SPCO gives approximately 130 performances annually, most at their home The Ordway Center for The Performing Arts in beautiful downtown St Paul.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespco.org\/\">St. Paul Chamber Orchestra website<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2417056 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2417056\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e9dbd1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"0e9dbd1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/youtu.be\\\/b71uGcG567Q?si=YcsC99FbO9wpPUCm&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra Inducted in 2000 You are settled in you seat \u2013 program in hand, anticipation in the air \u2013 when it begins: the fusion of sounds, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":557,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,6],"tags":[209,65,57,45,211,82,210],"class_list":["post-559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-23","category-inductee","tag-209","tag-inductee","tag-minnesota","tag-minnesota-music-hall-of-fame","tag-spco","tag-st-paul","tag-st-paul-chamber-orchestra"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=559"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/559\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2885,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/559\/revisions\/2885"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mnmusichalloffame.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
