David recites nine of his poems accompanied by original compositions by the Irish musician, Owen Ó Súilleabháin.
There is something extraordinary about a collaboration between virtuoso talents who are also close friends; the result can transcend the sum of its individually-remarkable parts to create a harmony neither could have imagined alone. Such is the case with this collection, years in the making.
Owen’s evocative music is a perfect creative complement to David’s words, and the guest contributors – Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin, Nóirín Ní Riain and other luminaries – add layers of richness and subtle complexity to the conversation between these two artists.
