HOSTED BY FORWARD MOTION
Meet in the Stutz Building’s Courtyard
1060 N Capitol Ave
Indianapolis, IN 46204
We will enjoy Unsilent Night while meandering around the canal walk. Afterwards, join us on the 2nd floor of The Stutz for a brief Forward Motion holiday concert featuring an improvised score to the 1910 black and white version of A Christmas Carol.
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 in the form of a cassette, CD, or Mp3. 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 boomboxes, or anything that amplifies music, and simultaneously start playing the music. They then walk a carefully chosen route through their city’s streets, creating a unique mobile sound sculpture which is different from every listener’s perspective.
Bring your phones, Bluetooth speakers, or good old fashioned boomboxes for a unique kind of caroling.
