The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra: CONNECT

Developed over 20 years ago as a partnership between The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and public schools in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, the CONNECT program is a supplementary music education program, provided free-of-charge, in 10 partnering schools. The CONNECT program serves all students in the partnering schools, students in grades 1–5, approximately 4,000 students annually.

The program features a full-orchestra concert in a large concert hall setting that has been specifically designed for young audiences aged 6–12. The concerts are created in partnership with local actors, writers and collaborators and aim to deliver an engaging, informative and positive concert experience for students and educators alike.
