************************

A SMALL DREAM IN RED:  ...It’s delightful to hear music that plays so freely with the known and the unknown elements of jazz.  McCarthy and Sylvester show the utmost respect for the formal elements of music while also possessing the daring to dissolve borders, making A Small Dream in Red an aural adventure of the highest order.

--Florence Wetzel, All About Jazz

CHERYL BOYCE TAYLOR is the author of three collections of poetry, Night When Moon Follows, Raw Air, and Convincing the Body.  She is best known for her dialectic poems and strong political voice.

GOLDA SOLOMON:  "Poet Solomon...Think of it as Jack Kerouac revisiting the Mile High City and grabbing a sandwich at the New York Deli while in town."  --Norman Provizer, Rocky Mountain News

 PO’JAZZ at CORNELIA STREET is one big friendly party of good words, good sounds, and good food.”
-- Gladys Serrano, Mutable Music
