ESPERANZA SPALDING + CHAMBER MUSIC SOCIETY

PROGRESSIVE + SPIRITED + JAZZ


At age 25, Esperanza has a musical wisdom that belies her years and this is evident from her latest solo offering, ‘Chamber Music Society’, which will be released on August 17, 2010. Heavy with classical and chamber influences, interspersed with world music jazz and folk, the album finds Spalding backed by drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and pianist Leo Genovese. The project has been inspired by the classical training of her younger years and has enabled her to create a modern chamber music group that combines the spontaneity and intrigue of improvisation with sweet and angular string trio arrangements. Spalding’s voice provides an angelic counterbalance to her rich bass and the album is further blessed by guest vocalist Milton Nascimento.
