John Psathas has said that, of all New Zealand composers, John Cousins has “thrown the spear furthest,” meaning he is one of our most original artists, going beyond the edge. Provocative, penetrating, and fundamentally true, Cousins remains absorbed and energised by creative work. On the conversations, talks, and reflections gathered in this volume, John Cousins speaks of landscape, family, himself, and shares a musical vision of consolation and hope.
