In the fall of 2006 a group of 9 cellists got on stage at Portland’s Doug Fir Lounge to perform western classical music in an informal setting.Many of the cellists that night thought that was a fun one-off gig.
But the energy of the night carried on, and Portland Cello Project quickly evolved into a nationally-recognized performing, recording and educational group touring everywhere in North America, performing in every type of venue imaginable, from punk rock clubs to symphony halls, to street parties, to TED Talks and exclusive private events, collaborating and/or touring with everyone from Buckethead to Peter Yarrow (Peter Paul and Mary) to Trampled by Turtles to The Dandy Warhols to Corin Tucker and Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney), longstanding collaborations with Prince alumni Tyrone Hendrix and Saeeda Wright, and alongside cellists such as Zoe Keating and Ben Solee.
The Cello Project’s three-part philosophy for the group that has mostly remained its unchanged north star over the years is:
1: To bring the cello places you wouldn’t normally see it
2: To perform music on the cello you wouldn’t normally associate with the instrument
3: To build bridges between different musical communities through collaborations and community outreach
2 Shows: 2 PM & 7:30 PM
