Recorded at Nowe Miasto on mini-disc recorder. There's an open freight elevator at Nowe Miasto that's operated by pulling on a rope to make it go up and down. John climbed the ladder to the top of the elevator shaft and hooked up the mini-disc microphone at the very end of he ropes. I sat down on the ground floor and played piano that was near enough to the elevator opening. Annika and Andy Newbauer sat inside the elevator, her playing the violin and him playing the saw with a bow. They started on the ground floor and John pressed record up at the top then ran down all those flights of stairs and got in the elevator to pull the ropes and moved the elevator up through the floors. I fade out as Annika and Andy climb through the warehouse. Up on the next floor, Michael and Willie play cello and bamboo percussion respectively. Andy, Annika and John move past the two of them and climb on up to the very top where their song ends just as the elevator comes to a dead stop.
