Review of RN Documentary: Imagination is the Instrument of Compassion


This is part literary program (focusing on Jonathan Safran Foer, who appears in the program) and part cultural sound essay - but it is all parts elegance, eloquence and soul. For stations that still use reference tones - or trust a fine CD to capture the most delicate beginnings as an audience holds its breath and the orchestra begins. I only wish I'd written about it well before September 11 - but never mind - no hook required.
