Publisher's Synopsis
In Secret Sounds of Ponds, environmental musician and ecopoet David Rothenberg tosses a microphone into a pond and we read (and hear) about an entirely new realm: the unexpected and stirring rhythms of some of the smallest and loudest creatures on Earth. Recording the songs of the animals and plants inhabiting each pond reveals a different perspective than what we meet in our human society. Every chapter contains multiple full-color photographs and musical works presented both as spectrograms and as QR codes that you can listen to with your phone.
