Kurt Vonnegut stated, "Bizarre travel plans are dancing lessons from God." This coffee break takes us on a whirlwind musical tour of Rome, Ithaca (NY), Japan, China, then back to New Jersey to hear Frances White's fascinating piece which uses the sound of traffic over a bridge as a foundation, Along the way we listen to Respighi's Fountains of Rome, as well as Henry Cowell's Snows of Fujiyama and explore how Nature's wonder serve as a muse for composers.
