Description In a small corner of New York's Central Park, the splintered personality of American composer and lyricist William Finn assembles to reflect, mourn and celebrate the 'infinite joy' of life, and its flip side - death. Stories about lost friends, lovers, family, the victims of 9/11 - as well as pet dogs - are shared through rich, powerful and hypnotic songs that reflect and remind us of the beauty of every life that has ever been threaded through our own.
