: Release Notes: \/ , \/ ,
' '
,: "The Poets Are Gathering" is the third in a series of acclaimed :,
: recordings from saxophonist/composer Benjamin Boone that :
:' integrate the music & poems from some of America's leading jazz ':
,: musicians and Poet Laureates, Guggenheim fellows and Pulitzer :,
: Prize winners. Where "The Poetry of Jazz" volumes offered the :
:' voice of the late U.S. Poet Laureate Philip Levine, here, ':
,: notable contributors include Tyehimba Jess, Juan Felipe Herrera, :,
: Patricia Smith, T.R. Hummer, and Edward Hirsch, along with :
:' pianist Kenny Werner, guitarist Ben Monder and drummer Ari ':
,: Hoenig, among many others. This recording possesses a visceral, :,
: in-the-moment force as the poetry responds to the roiling, :
:' insurgent energies against racism and other societal ills. The ':
,: themes of immigration, racism, homelessness, poverty, abuse, :,
: protests, and war can overwhelm and distress, but through the :
:' voices of some of the world's great literary minds there are ':
,: clues to be found to absorb the blows, summon the spirits, :,
: engage the moment and as Tyehimba Jess suggests, "murder the :
:' silence" that threatens to immobile us, to keep us away from ':
,: the reasons to commit, to deal, to hope - and, above all, to :,
: imagine. :
