Songs and Sonnets by Paul Muldoon
Paul Muldoon has been interested in writing for music for at least twenty years, over which time he has collaborated with composers as various as Mark-Anthony Turnage, Warren Zevon, and Wayside Shrines, the Princeton-based musical collective of which he is a founder member. Songs and Sonnets brings together poems and lyrics from a writer who has been described by The Irish Times as 'a force of nature.'
The Guardian, 11/01/13: 'They are complex, charged performances that vibrate in the interim between one thing and the otherThey'll rock your world.'
Paul Muldoon was born in Co. Armagh, Northern Ireland in 1951. He now lives in the US, where he teaches at Princeton University and is poetry editor for the The New Yorker. He has published eleven collections of poems, most recently Maggot (Faber, 2010). His awards include the Pulitzer, Griffin, T.S. Eliot and European Prizes for poetry.
