*** NOTE: This event will be rescheduled tentatively to the summer. We will keep you posted ***

The JAZZmeetsPOETRY series adds a special show in honor of the 50th anniversary of the release of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew.

"Bitches Brew" is a studio double album released March 30, 1970, on Columbia Records by the jazz legend. It marked his continuing experimentation with electric instruments. The album initially received a mixed response, due to its unconventional style and experimental sound. It gained momentum and became Davis's highest charting album on the U.S. Billboard 200 with peak at No. 35 and also his fastest selling at the time when it was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1976 for selling 500,000 copies.

In 1971, it won a Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album. In 2003, the album was certified platinum for selling one million copies.

STAY TUNED FOR FEATURED MUSICIANS AND PERFORMERS

Co-produced by Marche-Pfister Productions and The Nash, the series provides a platform for poets and jazz musicians to make art that is expressive, interactive and captivating.
