Jazz Poetry Month: Mara Rosenbloom Bone Labryrinth Trio

Mara Rosenbloom travels back to City of Asylum for her newest project of original work.

Over the past decade, Rosenbloom’s distinctive body of work has increasingly delved into the nature of human connection, looking to connectivity in nature as models for how we might more effectively communicate & come together. Her latest project, Bone Labyrinth, draws connection between the spirals of our inner ears – the locus for human balance and hearing – and the seemingly universal fascination with re-creating external labyrinths featuring a series of melodies that circles back and delves in directions to try something new.

The set includes poetic works from Adrienne Rich as well as live collaborations with poets Patricia Jabbeh-Wesley (Liberia) and Airea D. Matthews (US).
