Milica Paranosic's A Bronx Tale was composed for the Ear to the Earth Festival 2011: New York Soundscape, a sonic portrait of New York City with events in the five boroughs. A Bronx Tale is based mainly on field recordings done in September 2011 in the Hunts Point neighborhood in the Bronx. Including street sounds and voices, a visit to a church, and sounds encountered in lengthy soundwalks, the recordings were done by Milica Paranosic with students — Melvin Zapata, Efrain Perez, Edward Bonner, and Austin Saint Rosa — at The Point, a neighborhood arts center. The first performance, which included other electronics and live performed vocals, took place at The Point on October 19, 2011.
