Vision Festival at 25

Corey speaks to the American pianist, poet and vocalist Amina Claudine Myers who is receiving a lifetime achievement award at this year's Vision Festival in New York.

The best jazz and improvised music with an adventurous spirit.

Corey Mwamba previews this year鈥檚 Vision Festival - for 25 years the spiritual home of free music in New York City. He speaks to the American pianist, poet and vocalist Amina Claudine Myers who is receiving a lifetime achievement award at the event. Amina鈥檚 expansive career has covered blues, gospel, spirituals, jazz and improv as well as theatre and choral work, and she introduces a couple of tracks from her back catalogue.

Elsewhere on the show, there鈥檚 light and exploratory improvisation that floats through the air from an ensemble put together by Torgrim Sollid, a Norwegian folk and jazz musician. And pianist Lisa Cay Miller, guitarist Vicky Mettler and bassist Raphae虉l Foisy-Couture spontaneously create gritty, fine-grained and revelatory music.
