Review of A Shortcut Back--9/11--The 5th Anniversary Remix
As I began listening to "A Shortcut back--9/11--The 5th Anniversary Remix," I thought that the music bed was overpowering the thoughts expressed by the interviews. As it progress, I realized that the music was playing a valuable role in setting the mood for the program. The bed was the lighting for the short stories that came from many different parts of the stage on that day.
It contained a well-balanced approach to those interviewed and displayed the positive outlook of the citizens of not onlyl America, but other countries as well.
As the program progress, the listener is pulled deeper into the evolving story. One listens to the music cuts and reflects on what those interviewed have said, while at the same time personally reflecting the events of 9/11 while simultaneously contemplated the future.
