The New York Phil hops on the walk-around-the-landscaped-space-with-soundtrack train (see below).   The highly allusive soundtrack was put together by Ellen Reid, who is one of the more soundscapey (and certainly one of the best) of today's many excellent young composers.  This walk isn't guided:  you download an app that triggers sounds sent to your earphones from various cells around the Park as you wander.  So you can do it over many times.  (Speaking of wandering around Central Park, here's something that I, for one, never knew.) 

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Delicious pan-African at Teranga (and people say their outdoor dining set-up is lovely).
