"All That Jazz" by Marc Bauch is a lavish, lyrical homage to New Orleans-the city where music breathes, history lingers in the humid air, and every street corner hums with the ghosts of forgotten songs. Opening with a reverent dedication to the city's eternal muse, the jazz poems summon the spirit of the Crescent City not as a distant ideal, but as a living, breathing presence steeped in gumbo smoke, spiced night air, and the timeless sway of brass.From the first lines, the book becomes a kind of invocation: lanterns flicker in syncopation, magnolia-scented shadows whisper, and the Mississippi-heavy with memory-rolls beneath velvet skies. The poems trace New Orleans as both myth and reality, a place where trumpets beckon the dead to dance, where sorrow learns to swing, and where saints and sinners parade side by side in jubilant, feathered second lines. Each verse is steeped in the dusky textures of the French Quarter, its iron lace balconies, its voodoo drums, its courtyards soaked in stories and slow-moving time.The collection captures jazz not merely as a genre but as a sacred force: a faith, a language, a pulse that binds the city to its past and its future. Its imagery moves with the fluid grace of a saxophone solo-wandering, yearning, and always returning home. "All That Jazz" becomes both a love letter and a conjuring, a book built not of ink alone but of breath, rhythm, and the firelight of New Orleans nights.At once elegy and celebration, this collection invites readers to step into a world where every heartbeat swings, every ghost hums a tune, and every poem carries the unmistakable thrum of jazz itself.
