The world-renowned “little orchestra” known as Pink Martini recently released their third album, and it’s damn good.

What started out as a a quintet playing fundraisers for causes such as affordable housing and public broadcasting in 1994 is now a 12-piece ensemble that tours the world as Portland, Oregon’s “international ambassador of culture.”
