Esperanza Spalding October 2, 2010

“An ebullient mash-up of sounds, styles and tongues.”―The New Yorker

One of the most exciting new figures in jazz, Esperanza Spalding is a wildly talented and stylistically eclectic young bassist, vocalist and composer. A past side-woman for Herbie Hancock, Joe Lovano, Regina Carter and many others, Spalding has earned a well-deserved reputation for stretching the jazz idiom into thrilling new territory. Her new project, Chamber Music Society, floats the spontaneity and intrigue of improvisation over sweet and angular string trio arrangements.
