A Modern Jazz Symposium of Music and Poetry
''A Modern Jazz Symposium of Music and Poetry'' is an album by jazz bassist Charles Mingus. In spite of the title, the album does not contain any poetry.〔 "Scenes in the City", however, includes narration performed by Mel Stewart and written by actor Lonne Elder with assistance from Langston Hughes.〔〔The liner notes credit "Lonnie Elders"; other sources credit "Lonne Elder III."〕 The composition "Duke's Choice" re-appears, in updated form, as "I X Love" on the 1963 album ''Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus''.〔Nat Hentoff identifies "Nouroog" as the precursor to "I X Love". 〕 "Nouroog", "Duke's Choice" and "Slippers" form the basis of the suite "Open Letter to Duke" on ''Mingus Ah Um''.
The CD issues of the album include three bonus tracks: the Dizzy Gillespie standard "Woody 'n' You", Charlie Parker's "Billie's Bounce", which is listed as "Bounce" and miscredited to Mingus, and an alternate take of "Slippers".
==Reception==
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow called it "An excellent set of challenging yet often accessible music".〔 ''The Penguin Guide to Jazz'' gives the album a three-star review (of a possible four stars), and describes it as "an opportunity for Mingus to experiment with texts and with pure sound".〔 The ''Penguin'' editors furthermore cite Clarence Shaw's performance on "New York Sketchbook" as "the best trumpet heard on a Mingus album for some time before or since".〔
