We meet at IX Art Park, 522 2nd Street SE. Then we promenade along a carefully chosen route through downtown Charlottesville, creating a unique mobile sound sculpture which is different from every listener’s perspective.

Unsilent Night is an original composition by Phil Kline, written specifically to be heard outdoors in the month of December. It takes the form of a street promenade in which the audience becomes the performer. Each participant gets one of four tracks of music. Together all four tracks comprise Unsilent Night. The fact that the participants play different “parts” simultaneously helps create the special sound of the piece. Participants carry bluetooth speakers, boomboxes, or anything that amplifies music, and simultaneously start playing the music.
More than 130 cities around the world host local editions of Unsilent Night. Read more here.
