Grammy Award-winning Parker Quartet, in partnership with The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, will perform two chamber music series this season in downtown Saint Paul and downtown Minneapolis. Hailed by The New York Times as “something extraordinary,” the Parker Quartet has rapidly distinguished itself as one of the preeminent ensembles of its generation.

During the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons, the Parker Quartet was the first-ever Quartet-in-Residence at the SPCO, and during the 2009-10 season, the quartet was also the first-ever Artist-in-Residence with Minnesota Public Radio (MPR) and American Public Media (APM). The SPCO is thrilled to partner with the Parker Quartet once again to bring their exceptional artistry to the Twin Cities community.
