One day at the corner of Spadina Avenue and College Street, two musicians (Isaac Applebaum and Lorne Fromer) begin to play the sax and the clarinet in front of the Crest Grill. It’s cool early winter and people are off to work. A teller was killed the day before at the nearby corner bank; a memoriam to her is a series of reactions from the crowd in the jumpy erratic style of an edgy killer/bank robber. A poetic exorcism of violence on the streets.
