Our Community Partnership with The SPCO
The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra firmly believes that building authentic, long-term relationships is vital to the work of serving the community and connecting more people to the transformational music they perform.
Thus, for fifteen years, this world-renowned orchestra has partnered with the Capri to bring extraordinary chamber music concerts to North Minneapolis. This treasured partnership offers both organizations the opportunity to engage new audiences in innovative ways, and to inspire the next generation to appreciate the beauty of classical music.
