Portland jazz artist and Grammy winner Esperanza Spalding returned to the Rose City this week. In this video, she discusses discipline and music, her commitment to her craft, and criticism about her music.
The bassist, who grew up in Portland and won Best New Artist at the Grammy Awards earlier this month, will perform tonight a sold out show for the 2011 PDX Jazz Festival Bridges and Boundaries: Jewish & African Americans Playing Jazz Together at the Newmark Theater.
She also visited Portland State University on Thursday to teach a master class and drew a crowd of nearly 300. She is a wonderful role model for young aspiring musicians and the music industry. Make sure to see her live at any of her upcoming concerts.
