Drawing on a lifetime immersed in music, the poems explore a diverse array of forms, including sonnets and pantoums, while celebrating composers from Purcell to Shostakovich and Philip Glass. Themes such as the tritone, referred to as the 'devil in music,' are intricately woven throughout. This collection, crafted over a decade, reflects the author's philosophical background and aims to redefine contemporary poetry's potential, offering a profound and innovative perspective on the intersection of music and verse.
