The October dates will see Pink Martini wow crowds with their signature cocktail of crowd pleasing classical, pop and jazz arrangements by founder, bandleader and pianist Thomas Lauderdale, showcased by the lux vocals of long term collaborator China Forbes, alongside the eclectic instrumentals of their one of a kind, 11-piece ensemble.
Lauderdale founded Pink Martini in 1994 and draws musical inspiration for the group’s vocal and instrumental selections from around the world, crossing the genres of classical, jazz and old fashioned pop.
Now more than twenty years later Pink Martini and Lauderdale perform in 22 languages on concert stages from Carnegie Hall to the Hollywood Bowl to Royal Albert Hall, and have appeared with more than 50 symphony orchestras throughout Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the Americas.
