CitySongs (V.107)
CitySongs is a song cycle based on
texts heard on the streets and in the locales
of Boston. The settings portray the words as accurately as possible
with regard
to preserving the original rhythm, pitch, and mood in which they were
observed
and recorded.
At times passionate, funny, violent, and vulnerable, the songs form an
overall
arch which illustrate above all the prevading dramatic theme of the
alienation
of the speaker, both from his community, and from himself.
