Jazz Poetry Month: Uri Gurvich Quartet "Kinship"

May 8, 2022 - May 8, 2022 | 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
City of Asylum
40 W. North Avenue

Kinship celebrates tribal and familial connections between different cultures and individuals, and shares messages of global unity. The music combines folkloric traditions from all four artists’ home countries, while simultaneously feeling out the spaces between various traditions. All with a jazzy and improvised twist.

This performance also features poetry collaborations with Vasyl Makhno (Ukraine), Gazmend Kapplani (Albania), Madhu Raghavendra (India), and Pamela Sánchez (Venezuela).

Featured Musicians: 

Uri Gurvich – saxophone
Leo Genovese – piano
Peter Slavov – bass
