ADDENDUM
Mistakes I didn't catch in the final editing stage. Just goes to show nothing's ever perfect T_T perhaps this section will grow as time passes
• 24:12 my transcription of Gil Evans' "Maids of Cadiz" is missing one more inner voice, my apologies
• 34:41 small audio error here, but perhaps it adds to the ambiance
• 37:31 meant to have the piano inverted here
