Unsilent Night @ Lehman College
Please join us again for Lehman College's 2nd Annual Unsilent Night performance on Wednesday, December 13, at 2 p.m. We will gather at the Music Building.
Unsilent Night is an original composition by Phil Kline, written specifically to be heard outdoors in December, always as a free event. It is a street promenade in which the audience becomes the performer. Each participant gets one of four tracks of music. Initially, the music was played using only cassette tapes in boomboxes. Still, as vintage boomboxes have become more challenging to find, more people use smartphones with portable speakers to blast the music (by streaming audio or using the free Unsilent Night app, which randomly selects one of the tracks to play). Together, all four tracks comprise Unsilent Night. Participants start playing their devices simultaneously, then walk a carefully chosen route through their city's streets, creating a unique mobile sound sculpture that differs from every listener's perspective.
Hope to see you all there!
