Welcome to the latest big new thing on Australia's cultural and Arts landscape!

Say it like this: ex temp oray

extempore extempore is a bi-annual (May and November) Australian journal of arts and writing that is about, inspired by and responding to jazz and improvised music.

The journal features fresh new writing, with well-known and new voices contributing short stories, poetry, features, interviews, reviews, art and photography.

A bonus CD of Australian jazz and improvised music accompanies each issue. Our first issue features music released by Kimnara Records.
