"It's now obviously urgent that we find a way back into balance with nature that observes, respects and integrates us into what we have left of the natural world. It's great to see and listen to David Rothenberg's work, harnessing science and music to point out the path of potential dialogue with the natural world and all the wonderful creatures within it."
–Peter Gabriel
"Mind-expanding. Generative. A book full of sonic marvels. Rothenberg shows how deep listening can change us."
–David George Haskell, Sounds Wild and Broken and Songs of Trees
"On the page and through his musical instruments, David Rothenberg sounds like no one else. That's because he listens like no one else. Much more than a reading experience, this book is a listening experience. Savor these pages."
–Carl Safina, Beyond Words and Alfie and Me
"This music woke something in my brain that I never knew was there. The sounds and the intelligent beauty of the words have given me an entirely new category of music: one that makes me feel ecstatic and serene, thrilled and calm at the same time."
–Jay Griffiths, Wild and A Country Called Childhood
