Have a look at the new blog by Sarah Mann-O’Donnell. “Sarah’s Sound Script” blog is an online venue for her poetic writings on sound. Sarah is a philosopher and poet who writes about sound. She’s a newcomer from Philadelphia.
I met Sarah Mann-O’Donnell at two of my concerts last week, and she wrote about:
Monday’s concert at Elastic with Carol Genetti
…and:
Friday’s concert at AV-aerie with Eric Glick Rieman.
I shared the bill with The Young Equestrians and Fred Lonberg-Holm, whom Sarah also wrote about.
