Abstract: In this paper, we determine all irreducible spherical functions Phi of any K -type associated to the pair (G,K)=(SO(4),SO(3)). This is accomplished by associating to Phi a vector valued function H=H(u) of a real variable u, which is analytic at u=0 and whose components are solutions of two coupled systems of ordinary differential equations. By an appropriate conjugation involving Hahn polynomials we uncouple one of the systems. Then this is taken to an uncoupled system of hypergeometric equations, leading to a vector valued solution P=P(u) whose entries are Gegenbauer's polynomials. Afterward, we identify those simultaneous solutions and use the representation theory of SO(4) to characterize all irreducible spherical functions. The functions P=P(u) corresponding to the irreducible spherical functions of a fixed K-type pi_ell are appropriately packaged into a sequence of matrix valued polynomials (P_w)_{wge0} of size (ell+1) imes(ell+1). Finally we proved that widetilde P_w={P_0}^{-1}P_w is a sequence of matrix orthogonal polynomials with respect to a weight matrix W. Moreover we showed that W admits a second order symmetric hypergeometric operator widetilde D and a first order symmetric differential operator widetilde E.
