Spiral Bound is a collection of songs about the women who take hold of our hearts and never let us go—the muses who return to us across memory, desire, and time. Between 1968–1972, sculptor Richard Edelman filled spiral-bound notebooks with poems recounting the women who captivated his twenties. In 2021, composer, lyricist, and performer Miranda Ferriss Jones discovered these poems and felt an immediate, intimate recognition.

Jones selected her favorite poems and filtered them through her own experiences and imaginings to create songs that move through different eras, musical styles, and emotional landscapes—each one a distinct shade of longing. The women at the heart of Spiral Bound are not muses in the background, but central figures who refuse to be forgotten.

This concert performance comes at a moment of evolution, following a week of ensemble-based workshops with students from the Sands PACE School of the Performing Arts, where the piece unfolds from song cycle into theatrical form. The evening features Miranda Ferriss Jones, Khaila Wilcoxon (Six, Hadestown), Laura Benanti (Tony Award winner, She Loves Me, My Fair Lady), guest artists from Sands PACE, and a small band of Broadway's finest musicians.
