From NY to San Fran to the South of France.” In this 45-minute outdoor musical promenade, participants join in the gorgeously engaging chorus of sound, by downloading one of four tracks through a dedicated app, and playing their parts simultaneously on their own devices. As we walk through the streets of our beloved Harvard Square, these four tracks overlap to create a moving sound sculpture, heard and experienced differently by each participant. Bring your phones! Bluetooth speakers are encouraged! Come be part of the music-making and enjoy a gorgeous winter stroll with your friends and neighbors, then stay for cookies and hot chocolate! Please join us at 5pm at the corner of Palmer & Church as we begin our stroll through Harvard Square! Gathering will begin at 4:30pm. The festivities will end in Winthrop Park with cookies and hot chocolate. For details on what to bring, please click here.

Unsilent Night is sponsored by The Harvard Square Business Association, Cambridge Arts Council, Longy School of Music of Bard College, Clary and Cimermantis Little Free Library, and New Gallery Concert Series.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” max_width_alignment_desktop=”default” max_width_alignment_tablet=”inherit” max_width_alignment_phone=”inherit” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_raw_html css=””]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
