Unsilent Night - Downtown Amesbury
Thursday, 12/21 from 6 - 7 pmUnsilent 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. Participants carry boomboxes, phones, or anything that amplifies music, and will simultaneously start playing on one of four tracks of music. Participants will then walk a carefully chosen route through downtown Amesbury, creating a unique mobile sound sculpture which is different from every listener's perspective.
