  • Oregon Symphony: esperanza spalding

    Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall 1037 SW Broadway, Portland, Oregon

    It’s a fabulous night of orchestra-meets-jazz with headliner—and Portland’s own—esperanza spalding: bassist, singer, songwriter, composer, and Grammy Award winner performing her own songs with arrangements that showcase the expanded forces of the orchestra. Among esperanza’s heroes is jazz icon and multi-Grammy Award winner Wayne Shorter, whose music you’ll also enjoy on this program, including Gaia, a work for vocals, jazz quartet, and orchestra co-written with spalding.
