Language, rhythm, and emotion are essential elements to both jazz and poetry. While poets use words to communicate and jazz musicians their instruments, both embody their message through performance.
The expressive nature of jazz and poetry is what led City of Asylum to pair the two together in its annual Jazz Poetry Festival. City of Asylum, a Pittsburgh-based non-profit, offers sanctuary to exiled writers from around the world and cultural programming for the local community. The Jazz Poetry Festival, which began in 2005, grew out of a one-day event that paired exiled Chinese poet Huang Xiang with saxophonist Oliver Lake. From that concert, City of Asylum’s Jazz Poetry Festival has grown into a month-long celebration and has received 13 grants from the Arts Endowment.
