Gil Gutiérrez brings the fullest meaning to the word, "virtuoso."
Whether it is jazz, or pure classical, he brings sensitivity and excitement to the music.

On March 3, 2012 the Minneapolis' Orchestra Hall will be transformed into the City of Lights for a concert that celebrates the romance of Paris. In a showcase of French music and composers, along with a salute to the artists who performed these classics, audiences can expect to hear the timeless melodies of singers Edith Piaf and Josephine Baker, composers Django Reinhardt and Michel Legrand (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg), singer-songwriters Jacques Brel and Serge Gainsbourg and more. Instrumentalists Gil Gutiérrez and Patrick Harison perform, along with Twin Cities-based singers Kersten Rodau and Robb Asklof. Conducting is Principal Conductor of Pops and Presentations Sarah Hicks, who along with the Orchestra’s Director of Pops and Special Projects, Lilly Schwartz, conceived and produced the program.
