Renowned poet Nikki Giovanni collaborates with saxophonist Javon Jackson in this unique performance, “The Gospel According to Nikki Giovanni.” Featuring spirituals and hymns curated by Giovanni, this event blends her poetic voice with Jackson’s soulful interpretations. A beautiful tribute to Black American spirituals, this performance meditates on resilience, faith, and freedom through the lens of jazz.
