		The 33-member Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra performs at UCLA's Royce Hall, Sunday, Feb. 25, under the direction of jazz musician Bobby McFerrin.
		The evening began with McFerrin, known mainly for his jazz work, conducting the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra in Bizet's "L'Arlsienne Suite" and ended with Bizet's "Symphony No. 1." Both pieces were full of subtlety and wit, qualities that distinguish great conductors.
		The 33-member orchestra produced a rich tone, but still retained the intimacy and vulnerability that only a chamber orchestra, as opposed to a 100-member symphony, can provide.
