The San Jose Chamber Orchestra is a twenty-member professional string orchestra, founded in 1991. Focused on presenting high-quality chamber orchestra repertoire, SJCO is celebrating its twentieth anniversary season and continues to champion living composers with a wide spectrum of ethnic and/or stylistic backgrounds in its regular subscription series, alongside more familiar classical works. Since its inception the orchestra has premiered over 80 compelling new works, mostly by commission. Conducted by Maestra Barbara Day Turner, SJCO is the winner of three ASCAP/League of American Orchestras Awards for Adventurous Programming. SJCO performs, records, collaborates with the award-winning Choral Project and other established arts groups, runs four youth orchestras and sponsors The Composition Connection in conjunction with the SJSU composition department. The orchestra maintains a local presence with an annual home season of five subscription concerts at the historic and sonically sumptuous Le Petit Trianon in San Jose ; Winter's Gifts concerts with The Choral Project at Mission Dolores in San Francisco and Mission Santa Clara de Asis in Santa Clara, and additional Young Artist and Youth Orchestra concerts.
