Music

The music generated for the Tome of Stars project spans the poems from the central work of that name (albums 1-6: Anthesis, Senescence, Sporogenesis, Anemochory, Quixotosis, and Scripture) through five companion collections accompanying the main work (Celestial Mechanics, In Darkness and in Light, Better Voices, First Love, and A Choral Dream), that expand the musical world of Tome of Stars through new poetry, classic literary voices, thematic reinterpretations, and choral arrangements. In total, there are approximately 130 poems set to music and nearly 200 total tracks including variations and instrumentals over 11 albums.

You can stream the music, explore vinyl editions, listen in the music player (Bandcamp embedded), watch lyric videos (YouTube embedded), or download sheet music (for A Choral Dream).
