about

The original score for Passages: A Fable in Six Cycles, a multi-arts project with visual artist and animator Scott Kolbo. This album contains co-composed compositions where each member of the TORCH Collective wrote individual musical themes inspired by characters in the film and then composed each theme individually to weave a narrative in sound that mirrors the themes of diversity in the video.
