Summary
"Songs For Two Voices is a showcase for Bruce Smith's jazz-like variations on sonnets and couplets, offering twenty-five duets: poems of call and response, song and countersong. Part ancient Greek chorus, part Southern Baptist revival, the poems groove and break, shimmy and dance. Smith filters his Miles Davis-like riffs through a post-World War II American sensibility."--BOOK JACKET.
