Wrap up your Lit Crawl evening and meet up with fellow crawlers at Boston’s smartest new performance space—WBUR CitySpace—for a PoemJazz performance. Using his voice as a musical instrument, Robert Pinsky, along with musicians Stan Strickland on reeds and vocals, Hankus Netsky on piano, and John Lockwood on bass, will improvise a conversation between the melodies of spoken sentences and the melodies of music.
