AMERICAN HIGHWAYS #31: PARIS, MOURNING.
In this episode of American Highways, pianist Guy Livingston presents a memorial for the victims of the terror attacks in Paris.
Music of Morton Feldman, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Caravan Palace comes together, not to make sense of the tragedy but rather to offer solace. The episode concludes with a tune by the Donal Fox Quartet: ‘Peace.’
