Beautiful tribute to a totally remarkable artist. He was a prince.

This is beautiful, Angel.

It reminds me a lot of the work of the late Michael Harper. He ran a seminar at my university with just 6 of us for 3 hours once a week in the evening back in 2002. It was a magical experience! Do you know his poetry? He draws on many jazz artists especially, both in subject and form/rhythm.

Thank you very much, Kathleen! I am vaguely familiar with the name, and thanks for telling me about his poetry. I’d be glad to check him out.

I am sure you had in his sessions a fascinating learning experience! I would myself be pleased to organize sessions with poetry, talks, and music!

Now that would also be a good podcast 😉 although the live experience is so important as well!
