A new work based on Charles Bukowski’s short story Six Inches. Here an excerpt: “Sarah got me down to being 6 inches tall. She carried me to the  store in  her  purse. I could look out at the people through the little air  holes she  had  poked in her purse. I will say one thing for the woman. She  still allowed me to have my beer. I drank it by the thimble. A quart would last me a  month. In the old days it was gone in 45 minutes. I was resigned. I  knew that  if  she  wished to do so she could make me vanish entirely.  Better  6 inches than nothing.”

     6 inches by the UT Big Band. Keith Brown, director, Alex Reyes, tenor.
