Manahil Bandukwala : part five

How important is music to your poetry?

Music helps me figure out rhythms in poetry. Over the past month, I’ve been practicing reading poems while music plays in the background. I got this idea from a performance by Conyer Clayton and Nathanael Larochette and decided to see how it would work for me. Songs and poems are twins, so naturally the musical nature of a poem comes through with music.
