A Poetry Album Spotlights the Black Experience in America

Lincoln Center’s first poet in residence Mahogany L. Browne and jazz pianist Sean Mason released CHROME VALLEY, a genre traversing album and music essay on the Black experience in America.

Last year, Time Magazine named writer Mahogany L. Browne’s poetry collection, Chrome Valley, one of "100 Must-Read Books" of 2023. Now, she's teamed up with producer and composer Sean Mason to create a music essay on the Black experience in America inspired by the collection. Browne and Mason join us to discuss their collaboration for a Listening Party.
