Esperanza Spalding: Jazz Diva on a Roll
By: Emily Cary

One year ago, bassist Esperanza Spalding introduced her album “Chamber Music Society” to Washington. Several months later, she received the 2011 Grammy Award for Best New Artist, topping teen idol Justin Bieber, among others.

“The award has more to do with shining the spotlight on an artist so people pay attention,” she said. “The exposure gives popular awareness of my work. It also makes me carefully choose both the projects and the social causes I support.”

This week, Spalding returns to Washington for a very special evening at Warner Theatre to reprise “Chamber Music Society” with drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and other crack musicians on the album, She will also give fans a peek into “Radio Music Society,” her upcoming album that revisits the pleasure of listening to the car radio.
