Coming next month, in the new quarterly batch from Another Timbre: Marco Fusi's magisterial recording of my extended viola d'amore solo "dust book", which he premiered in an extremely memorable (to me, anyway) concert at Darmstadt in 2023.

Dalkey Archive is deeply saddened to hear about the passing of poet, writer, mathematician, and prolific member of the Oulipo group, Jacques Roubaud. We were fortunate enough to publish a dozen of his brilliant, and endlessly inventive books.
He will be missed.
