Jazz Poetry
Jazz Poetry is a literary form that combines the rhythms and improvisational elements of jazz music with spoken word. It often features a free-flowing style, allowing poets to express their thoughts and emotions in a way that mirrors the spontaneity of a jazz performance.
This genre emerged in the 20th century, particularly during the Harlem Renaissance, when poets like Langston Hughes began to incorporate musical elements into their work. Jazz poetry celebrates the cultural and artistic connections between music and literature, creating a unique experience for both the poet and the audience.
