Event Details:

Please join us for our third annual Musician Appreciation Concert, a virtual event in celebration of the musicians of the SPCO. While we wish we could be together for this celebratory night, we look forward to sharing a fun virtual event where you can watch past and new performances by SPCO musicians and get to know the orchestra better through interviews, demonstrations and conversations with musicians throughout the program.

Participation in this virtual event is free of charge, but we hope all participants will make a contribution to the event to support our wonderful musicians. All donations will go directly to SPCO musicians in appreciation for the passion, dedication and incredible artistry they share with thousands in our community every year.

Register today and you'll receive event updates and reminders. You can also make a voluntary contribution along with your registration.

Increase your support for the musicians with a special matching gift opportunity!

The SPCO Board of Directors will match all new or increased gifts for the Musician Appreciation Concert, up to a total of $25,000.

If you supported last year's Musician Appreciation Concert, we hope you'll increase your gift this year and the amount of your increase will be matched. If you didn't support last year's event, your entire gift this year will be matched!

Thank you to our event sponsors U.S. Bank, and 3M and Ecolab.

Organization Details:

Renowned for its artistic excellence, remarkable versatility of musical styles and adventurous programming, The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra is widely regarded as one of the finest chamber orchestras in the world. Now in its 65th concert season, the SPCO has recently undergone transformational change with the opening of its new home, the Ordway Concert Hall, the addition of a new generation of players, and significant changes in its artistic vision. The SPCO is primarily an unconducted ensemble that performs a broad range of repertoire from Baroque to new music and works in close collaboration with a dynamic roster of Artistic Partners.

The virtuoso musicians of the SPCO present more than 100 concerts and educational programs in the Twin Cities each year. The orchestra’s free online Concert Library receives more than 350,000 visits annually and offers both live and on-demand videos of concerts that can be viewed anytime, anywhere, completely free of charge. Through its partnership with Classical Minnesota Public Radio, the SPCO is regularly heard on public radio programs that reach nearly 850,000 listeners each week on over 250 stations. Additionally, the SPCO has released 68 recordings, including its recent critically-acclaimed recording of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Piano Concertos with Artistic Partner Jeremy Denk and the 2018 Grammy Award-winning recording of Franz Schubert’s Death and the Maiden with violinist and former Artistic Partner Patricia Kopatchinskaja. The SPCO has commissioned 162 new works and tours nationally and internationally, including recent engagements in Europe and New York City, and a prestigious residency with violinist Joshua Bell at the 2021 Bravo! Vail Music Festival.
