Gabriel Campos Zamora

Gabriel Campos Zamora grew up with parents who played jazz, and now he is the principal clarinetist for the Minnesota Orchestra. Gabriel Campos Zamora gets the best of both worlds when he busts out some boogie-woogie with an orchestra backing him up; a toe-tapping Concerto by Artie Shaw, on this episode of Performance Today.
