This is a patient and beautifully constructed piece that would be perfect wind down type of story for final half-hour of ATC and maybe more fitting for the weekend shows. It's an audio postcard with a skillfully crafted acoustic space that sets a full midtown Manhattan scene. This trafficked chaos is balanced by the elegant poise of minimalist jazz notes and the voice of a shoeshine poet--a pacific observer of life.
