TiC 070201 Maria The Korean Bride

Maria Yoon is a performance artist based in New York City. She has been married 22 times, to different grooms, each in a different state. I attended her one woman-show and was inspired to create this podcast episode of her story.

Part One:

I crafted this piece in January 2007 for the Third Coast Audio Festival, where it was selected for the project called 99 Ways To Tell A Story. "Maria" remains in permanant archive there as the final piece (#101) of 99 Ways. The Festival requirements: to start with the words "to begin with, they didn't get along"; to include, in order, a pre-recorded sound, a rhythmic noise and an exclamation; and to run 2'30" precisely. I've included "Maria The Korean Bride" among four short clips on the TiC MySpace page

Part Two:

A full Tourist In The City podcast piece, now in the editing studio.

Background Song:

American Bach Soloists from the Bay Area perform "Kyrie Eleison" [Our Lord, Have Mercy] J.S.Bach's Mass in B Minor.
