Passing Tones

Passing Tones orchestrates a collection of poems attuned to the music within-and across- everyday moments. A washed-up lead guitarist, a ragtag band of weekend musicians, and the voices of family and strangers populate a score that attends to the fragile signals that bind people across time. Turning to history, language, and ecology, these poems-some paired with original soundtrack accompaniments-ask what it means to stay attuned to one another, to the changing Earth, and to the unseen patterns that hold our days together.
