The Now Era is a lyrical memoir that blends the art of improvisation with the art of being human. Jazz pianist and composer Sarah Jane Cion weaves together poetic reflections, short stories from the bandstand, intimate moments from a life spent teaching and performing, and insights on presence, creativity, resilience, and joy.
Written in three “sets,” the book moves from meditative philosophy to vivid jazz stories—many only a few lines long—capturing the spontaneity, uncertainty, and beauty of a life lived in rhythm.
At once soulful, humorous, and deeply relatable, The Now Era invites readers to slow down, listen more deeply, and discover the music unfolding within their own lives.
