This piece is amazing! I used to live in New Orleans and connected with all the little details and images here. I would have loved it before the hurricane, but, listening to it after Katrina, it made me cry.
What a great tribute to New Orleans. Producer Eve Abrams has produced a musical love letter to remember all the good things about the city and why it needs to be rebuilt. She recites the list with humor and heart. The music comes and out like a character who has something to say. Nicely done. This short three-minute module could be used as a pertinent and certainly timely drop-in for music programs or magazines.
I really enjoyed the piece - it's great to be reminded about what New Orleans was like before the disaster, and the piece does this with such intimate detail. These are the types of things we remember about a place—the simple things.
