Daphne Marlatt reads passages from her classic cycle of poems, Steveston, with music by Canadian composers Robert Minden and Carla Hallett. The musical score features an array of vintage waterphones, bowed carpenter's saws, found object percussion and voice -a world of splendid acoustic sound. A delicate resonance of microtonal nuance and lyrical intimacy surrounds Marlatt's poetic voicing, rhythm and imagery. Her words bring you to the river's mouth and into a sensuous landscape of lives lived in canneries, fishing camps, on the sea and over time.
