COSMICOMICS

Audio CD by Seth Boustead produced by Access Contemporary Music, 2023

Access Contemporary Music is a nonprofit organization devoted to integrating musical activity into everyday life, and it's highly regarded for its support for contemporary composers and promotion of new classical music. This is the second CD package I’ve designed for the organization, founded and managed by composer Seth Boustead. Cosmicomics features 8 songs by Seth inspired by Italo Calvino’s seminal remarkable story collection Cosmicomics. For its cover, I chose a painting by Randy S. Jones, whose work was featured in the final issue of Esopus.
