Quotes:

"The marriage of poetry and music takes an uncommon combination of delicacy and drive. Confluence has both the touch and the strength as it melds the texts of J.D. Scrimgeour and other poets with the marvelous persuasion of Philip Swanson’s music. The result is seamless—at once brimming with lucid language and musical feeling."

-Baron Wormser, former Poet Laureate of Maine
