Ep. 43 – A Morning at the Cottage and a Day on the Beach

Season two begins with two contrasting selections to help us savor the many moods of summer. Chris Caine’s “Hanging Out on the Beach” brings syncopation, rhythmic drive, and a bright popular-style energy, while Martha Hill Duncan’s “Misty Morning” unfolds at its own unhurried pace.
