Publication documenting renowned post-modern architect Michael Graves and the summer pavilion for the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. Written by architecture historian and critic Jayne Merkel, the book begins with a history of other outdoor music structures and the decision to build on the river site.

The book also includes an in-depth interview with Graves and a chapter on the "state of the art" acoustics and the collaboration between architect Graves and artist Ted Schmidt which resulted in the unique cut-out sculptures adorning the roof line of Riverbend.
