Review of Sixty Second Season: Teenagers' Memories of Fall and Winter


This is a montage piece - all sound and voices, teenagers talking about their memories/ associations with fall and winter. It starts with a boy talking about memories of the football season, and then some halloween memories from a couple of teens, and some Thanksgiving and more halloween/ fall memories. The piece has a nice rhythm, high quality mix. My favorite moment is the end, where a young man is talking about dressing for winter - and his language plays off the sound musically. Would have loved to have that continue - a kind of rap, sound poem, about the seasons.
