Poet Dean Young and Clarinetist Ben Goldberg Mix Media
"The plan was Ben would compose a dozen pieces inspired by specific Young poems. Then Goldberg, trumpeter Ron Miles and guitarist Nels Cline would record those compositions. While they recorded a piece, Dean Young in the studio would write a new poem in response."

What would we lose by this?" |
