Making Music contains more of "the quirky, strange and thought-provoking" poems for which Cotter has been praised. Angels in various forms proliferate in this collection, musing on mortality, the centrality of art, the fragility and misguidance of humanity. The book is rounded off with a pair of Celtic epyllia more influenced by Logue's Homer than Lady Gregory.
