Review of: Sunday Morning Self Amusement

Scott Meyers has written a poem that I can most certainly relate to. Over a driving jazz line Scott reads his poem that describes the feelings and sensations of a lazy Sunday, moving your own toes, watching a fly and listening to Billie Holliday. The music keeps the piece moving forward as Scott’s voice comes over load and clear with the poem. Bells are heard at the start and end, almost like pushing the play and stop buttons as a listener. If there is more where this piece came from I can’t wait to hear it. Listen for good use of the narrator’s own voice as a background element at the end.
Play during any show regarding Sundays and poetry.
