Hot jazz, German song, Latin cha-cha and Afro-Cuban drumming come together in this collaboration between Emmy Award-winning composer Laura Karpman and world-renowned soprano Jessye Norman. Inspired by Langston Hughes' epic poem Ask Your Mama: 12 Moods for Jazz, this heady mixture weaves the collective memories of America and the hopes for its future into a tapestry of orchestral music and sound samples.
