My Words Are Music: A Celebration Of Sun Ra's Poetry pays tribute to the legendary Sun Ra’s lesser-known legacy as a poet, inviting a multigenerational cast of artists to bring his words to life. With evocative recitations set against expressive jazz preludes and interludes by Marshall Allen, the album fuses spoken word and music to highlight Sun Ra’s visionary perspective and enduring message.
This unique compilation features thoughtfully curated selections of Sun Ra's poetry, presented courtesy of his estate and interpreted by artists who chose verses that resonate with them. Accompanied by liner notes and a poetry-printed record envelope, My Words Are Music is an immersive experience for listeners seeking to explore the cosmic boundaries of jazz, poetry, and spoken word.
