ZW-3: Dienstag mit Aja Monet & The Anouchka Gwen Experience

We are pleased to welcome American poet and writer Aja Monet for an exceptional musical and lyrical evening. Before her, Zurich-based singer-songwriter and bass player Anouchka Gwen will break her concert hiatus, and we look forward to it!

As a poet, community organizer, and educator aja monet moves between mediums,
each one an element to her writing. Organizing and activism manifest as part of a
process toward liberation, with the poems, the music, and the art serving as the
scribe of the time. Building off oratorical traditions, aja is the conduit for her
predecessors to channel through. At any given time you’ll find the revolutionary spirit
of Audre Lorde and the Last Poets, you’ll feel June Jordan, Amiri Baraka, Jayne
Cortez and even the expressive ephemerality of a passing blue note.

This concert is organised in collaboration with Noise Reduction.
