Song of the Land (2014)

This short features breathtaking, time-travel panoramas of New York City's splendid Central Park, designed by the genius, nineteenth century landscape architect, Frederick Law Olmsted. Since the 1800s, Central Park has been an outdoor home to a plethora of animals, as well as billions of people of all races, colors, nationalities, abilities and disabilities - anyone who simply enjoys its beauty. All take pleasure in this remarkable, man-made topography, created by Olmsted with his landscape partner, Calvert Vaux. Indeed, the remarkable, pastoral and picturesque beauty is most splendidly presented. The short also showcases original musical theatre sung by a lyric tenor with symphonic accompaniment and American Sign Language. Honored by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, it emanates from an original Off Broadway production of Theatre in Motion of the New York City/New Jersey area, featuring creative and performing artists with and without disabilities.
