UPC: 680160638208. 9x12 inches. Text: Alan Dugan. Alan Dugan. Poems Seven, ©Alan Dugan, published by Seven Stories Press, New York.

The poetry of Pulitzer Prize winner Alan Dugan struck a chord with Matheson, who notes a certain contradiction in the poems and in his own writings - an emotional directness combined with complexity. Matheson chose seven Dugan poems, which span decades, in answering a 2004 commission by Carnegie Hall through the Weill Music Institute, and also chose the Pierrot ensemble to convey his impressions. Matheson tends to build to a punch line,which often helps clarify Dugan's slight obscurities. You may not know what the poet means, but the music at least directs you to the right place emotionally. - Mark Swed, The Los Angeles Times.
