Contrebassiste et chanteuse, Esperanza Spalding est une artiste plusieurs fois primée aux Grammy Awards, reconnue pour son approche audacieusement hybride du jazz contemporain. Saluée comme une prodige dès son adolescence, elle se fait remarquer au cours des années 2000 avec ses premiers albums Junjo et Esperanza, ce dernier atteignant le sommet des palmarès de jazz contemporain. En 2010, elle crée la surprise en remportant le Grammy de la Révélation de l’année — une première pour une musicienne de jazz —, ce qui propulse son troisième album, Chamber Music Society, dans le Top 40 du Billboard, devenant ainsi l’album de jazz contemporain le plus vendu de l’année. En parallèle, Spalding s’impose comme pédagogue, devenant la plus jeune professeure à intégrer le corps enseignant du Berklee College of Music.
Elle décroche un second Grammy pour Radio Music Society en 2012. Depuis, elle poursuit une trajectoire résolument expérimentale, enchaînant des albums à forte dimension conceptuelle : Emily’s D+Evolution (2016), Twelve Little Spells (2019) et Songwrights Apothecary Lab (2021), explorent les frontières du jazz, de l’art rock, du R&B, des styles afro-latins, du néo-prog et de la pop expérimentale. Malgré cette diversité, les standards de jazz intimes et subtilement interprétés demeurent au cœur de son identité musicale, comme en témoignent son album en duo avec le pianiste Fred Hersch, Alive at the Village Vanguard (2023), et sa collaboration teintée de folk et de bossa nova avec Milton Nascimento, Milton + Esperanza (2024).

Bassist and singer Esperanza Spalding is a Grammy-winning performer with an ambitiously cross-pollinated approach to contemporary jazz. Hailed as a prodigy in her teens, she garnered wider attention in the 2000s with the release of her debut, Junjo, and its follow-up, Esperanza, the latter of which topped the contemporary jazz charts. In 2010, she won Best New Artist at the Grammys, an accolade that helped propel her third album, Chamber Music Society, into the Billboard Top 40 as the best-selling contemporary jazz album that year. At the same time, Spalding won respect as a teacher, becoming the youngest faculty member at the Berklee College of Music.
She took home a second Grammy for 2012’s Radio Music Society. Spalding has remained a forward-thinking maverick artist, issuing a series of increasingly concept-driven albums, including 2016’s Emily’s D+Evolution, 2019’s Twelve Little Spells, and 2021’s Songwrights Apothecary Lab, all of which found her moving far afield of jazz into art rock, R&B, Afro-Latin styles, neo-prog, and experimental pop. Still, intimate and artfully rendered standards and jazz remain a core of her musical identity, as on her 2023 duo album with Fred Hersch, Alive at the Village Vanguard and her 2024 folk and bossa nova-tinged collaboration with Milton Nascimento, Milton + Esperanza.
