A Jazz Suite Inspired by Dylan Thomas's "Under Milk Wood" is an album by the English pianist Stan Tracey and his quartet, that was released by the Columbia subsidiary of EMI in 1965. The music was written in response to the 1953 BBC radio play Under Milk Wood, by the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas. It has often been cited as one of the best jazz recordings made in the United Kingdom.

In a series of articles for The Guardian newspaper titled "50 great moments in jazz", John Fordham wrote of the album: "Under Milk Wood was an evocative collection of sparky themes inspired by the Dylan Thomas radio play (it's sometimes performed with a narrator reading the parts). And thanks to Tracey's sparing piano and Wellins's softly hooting sax, the rippling tone-poem 'Starless and Bible Black' is widely acclaimed as one of the great jazz performances". - Wikipedia

Dylan Thomas | Veo a los muchachos del verano
[de «Collected Poems» (1934-1952)]
"Veo a los muchachos del verano en su ruina
echar el diezmo de oro estéril,
descuidar las cosechas, congelar los suelos;
allí, en su calor, las inundaciones de invierno
de amores congelados donde ellos buscan a sus niñas,
y ahogan en sus mareas las cargas de manzana."[...] Seguir leyendo en: https://pth.bz/T5b1nMa

Repetition in Dylan Thomas’s poetry is not mere ornament but a structural force that intensifies emotion, amplifies rhythm, and builds dramatic pressure within the poem.

The enduring appeal of Dylan Thomas lies in his ability to articulate complexity without dissolving it into neat solutions. His poems confront fundamental questions about life, death, time, faith, and language.

Thinking this "old character" status needs to be wrung, oh so so much.
