Storytelling has always been central to Scott's music, and here we're gently guided between songs, changes in tempo and tone negotiated so the whole makes sense as a body of work; Scott by turns sweet, playful and sisterly.

Why see Los Angeles Philharmonic - Jill Scott and Robert Glasper?
A night of soul and r'n'b at the Bowl!
Grammy Award-winning Robert Glasper joins forces with both the LA Phil and the reigning queen of RnB and Neo-Soul, Jill Scott, for one smooth evening of soul, jazz and hip-hop at the Hollywood Bowl! Channeling her early days as a spoken word artist, Scott imbues her songs with a rhythmic voracity that's matched by her live performances, whilst Glasper's "Experiment" band shows off their electronic skills that can cross any genre!
Making her Bowl debut, Philadelphia native singer, poet and actress, Jill Scott showcases the powerful blend of sensual R&B, jazz, hip hop and spoken word that made her a star. Armed with a smoky and emotionally charged voice, her music drives her messages of self-empowerment and confidence home. Glasper's main influence Miles Davis has had a profound influence on his style, with his 2012 album Black Radio winning him the Grammy Best R&B Album Award.
