City Reading (Tre Storie Western)

City Reading (Tre Storie Western) is a 2003 album by the French duo Air in collaboration with the Italian writer Alessandro Baricco.

In this album, Baricco narrates some passages from his novel City with Air's music in the background.

The impetus for the album was in 2001, when Air performed background music to a live theater reading of City at the request of Baricco.

The album was mixed by Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich.

All lyrics are written by Alessandro Baricco; all music is composed by Jean-Benoît Dunckel and Nicolas Godin
