Tätt intill – Jazz and Poetry in Swedish

Jazz and poetry meet in Tätt intill, a poetry concert featuring Stefan Forssén on piano and Maria af Malmborg performing vocals and spoken verse. Forssén has composed new music for poems by Bob Hansson, Eva-Stina Byggmästar, Bruno K. Öijer and Göran Sonnevi. Piano, voice and words form a stage experience in which jazz carries, comments on and sometimes challenges the poetry. The performance is in Swedish.
