Poetry+Jazz: A Magical Marriage is exactly that - an intertwining of two deep art forms to create something brand new - an audio book CD unlike anything done previously.

It consists of:
World-class poetry (Rilke, Rumi, Rexroth, etc.), accompanied by recordings of
World-class jazz compositions (Clare Fischer, Maria Schneider, Stan Getz, etc.), and read by
World-class readers (including Rumi's most-loved translator, Coleman Barks).

The results are full of deep emotion and beauty, as you can tell from the sample tracks below. Happy listening to these marriages made in heaven!'
