Esperanza Spalding Overjoyed

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 sidewoman for Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Joe Lovano, Regina Carter and many others, Spalding has earned a welldeserved 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.
