Description

While in Provincetown several years ago, I came across a book of poetry by Dennis Rhodes. The bookstore proprietor told me he was a local artist and gave me his phone number. Thus began a long friendship and collaboration, which included this cycle for baritone Christopher Herbert.

Listen to the full cycle here.

I recorded “Where Memories Go to Die” (the final song in the cycle) on my album, “Infrastructure: The Songs of David Sisco.” You can listen to that by clicking here.
