Review of For Whom the Bell Tolls

Braider's Zen-like piece is beautiful in its simplicity. It would fit in well during an afternoon news magazine when people are driving home from work. As I listened to the measured gongs of the bells and the "make each word count" style that Braider does so well, stress melted away. Listeners will definitely be served food for thought with this piece. It's an excellent thinking piece.
