Live People Quartet – The New Cities (Fancymusic 2013)

City is the place where many people live. There are old towns, where the story of events and destinies lives. There are contemporary towns, in which tomorrow starts today. But it happens that someone is no longer able to live as he did before, because of a distress, desire of changes or just weariness, and then he begins to build a new place… And if there are a lot of such people, there is a chance that the new cities will be built. On the one hand, these are the cities that do not exist – mirages, castles in the air. But you can see them and even live in as if you always have been. There is nothing you can do about it, you’re good there. On the other hand, this is another dream of paradise, but artificial paradise, requiring creation of itself. Signs, milestones, the path of grains, poured of one’s bag (like in a favorite old fairy tale by Andersen), a series of coincidences – they show the direction.
