Piece Description
Evan relates the excitement of a group of seven-year-olds when they were finally allowed to have something other than milk or juice for lunch. Little did they know how fleeting this pleasure would turn out to be. This story was originally part of a site-specific audio tour of our school written and recorded by third graders. The stories recount school memories ranging from kindergarten to third grade which reference specific locations, landmarks and objects on campus. While these pieces were originally created to be listened to on-site, they can be enjoyed on their own as well. We also recommend that you listen using headphones.
