From chessboard to songbook: GM Jonathan Levitt’s new creative path

Grandmaster Jonathan Levitt has recently ventured into an unexpected field: songwriting. Inspired by a shared poetry routine with his wife, he has written lyrics dedicated to figures such as Bobby Fischer, Boris Spassky and Garry Kasparov. With nine chess-themed songs now available, Levitt continues to explore new forms of creativity while maintaining his deep connection to the game. | Photo: Jonathan Levitt
