Portland Cello Project is a genre-defying cello ensemble known for reimagining everything from Bach to Beyoncé. Based in Portland, Oregon, the group has built a reputation for pushing the boundaries of classical instrumentation by bringing cello music to rock clubs, concert halls, and festivals across the country.
Since its founding in 2006, PCP has collaborated with an eclectic range of artists and performed bold arrangements of hip-hop, pop, metal, and indie-rock — all through the lens of classical technique and adventurous orchestration. With a rotating cast of phenomenal cellists, the group blends tradition with experimentation to create concerts that feel unexpected and alive.
Doors open at 6:30 pm. Tickets purchased online can be picked up at any time from the Box Office during regular hours (Tuesday-Saturday 2:00-5:30 pm) and from 2:00 pm on day of show.
