The Manitoba Chamber Orchestra is a classical music ensemble based in Winnipeg, Canada. Its core membership of 22 string players comes from the 67-member Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra.
The MCO was founded in 1972.[1] Its music director for much of its history was Britain's Simon Streatfeild. In 2007, it hired the Estonian conductor Anu Tali as its new music director.[2]
