Name Esperanza Means "Hope"

Jazz

Name Esperanza means hope. And she really inspiring is. Two years ago I heard about her first. Then I have got all the discography of this slim 70th styled lady. She is great not only as a perfect jazz composer + singer, but mostly a perfect contrabass player, what is rare amongst female jazz performers. She really knows how to threat this strictly big male music instrument. Sometimes it looks a bit sexy.) Generally, I think she is singular. Esperanza have reached an amazing heights in it. No matter how much her skill may be evaluated on exactly the art of jazz improvisation, - very possible it is not as perfect as Ron Carter's or Dave Holland's. The fact is she has her own inimitable style. And it is really amazing.
