“I believed this (Reel #1) film to have been lost, so it missed being on the Prismatic Music disc along with Reels #2, #3 and “#4. This one offers a portrait of a classical music d.j. broadcasting on WDET public radio, glimpses of a rehearsal and performance of ‘The Nutcracker’ at Ford Auditorium, students working in my filmmaking class, and the editing, inking and cleaning of this very film. These four reels provide idiosyncratic views of the city.” (J.B.)
