Thanks for taking me on a trip to the city. I especially liked the ending of this piece. "And so, summer begins." So simple and promising. Some of the ambience seemed a little long, but maybe that was because there wasn't necessarily any outstanding noises happening. The heavy use of ambience certainly set the mood - warm, somber and real. I felt like I could glimpse a street where I've never been and might not ever go. I think the idea for the piece was really creative. The producer is very good at observing and puts her thoughts together nicely. Good work.
