The Asylum Quartet performing on Where We Live.

The photography of both brothers’ is featured in the book The Distance Between Us. The story it tells is about how both Capozziellos are living and coping with Nick’s condition. Both join us to talk about their project.

And later, we hear music from the Asylum Quartet -- four award-winning saxophonists, who play a Chopin theme, take us on a trip to Spain, and even have a go at our theme song.

The Capozziello brothers originally appearedon Where We Live on October 18, 2013; the Asylum Quartet originally appearedon March 21, 2014.
