THE IDEA
The coronavirus has forced us to adopt a lifestyle of physical distancing, but we are still a community!
Let's create a piece of performance art that showcases our connection to each other in spite of physical separation.
And let's dedicate it to all of our friends and neighbors.
INSTRUCTIONS
Learn this melody. Be sure you are in tune! (A = 440 hz)
On Saturday, October 10, 2020, at 6:30 pm, go outside your home
- backyard, frontyard, balcony, porch, open window -
and perform the piece continuously for as long as you want.
Let the music join with the natural sound of your neighborhood's environment.
You do NOT need to match tempo or rhythm with anyone else you might hear doing this!
Feel free to use rubato or add silence between the musical phrases however you like.
Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,
you are a part of an enormous performance, and the whole is greater than any one person could possibly perceive.

Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,
you are a part of an enormous performance, and the whole is greater than any one person could possibly perceive.

THE IDEA
The coronavirus has forced us to adopt a lifestyle of physical distancing, but we are still a community!
Let's create a piece of performance art that showcases our connection to each other in spite of physical separation.
And let's dedicate it to all of our friends and neighbors.
INSTRUCTIONS
Learn this melody. Be sure you are in tune! (A = 440 hz)
On Saturday, October 10, 2020, at 6:30 pm, go outside your home
- backyard, frontyard, balcony, porch, open window -
and perform the piece continuously for as long as you want.
Let the music join with the natural sound of your neighborhood's environment.
You do NOT need to match tempo or rhythm with anyone else you might hear doing this!
Feel free to use rubato or add silence between the musical phrases however you like.
Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,

Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,
you are a part of an enormous performance, and the whole is greater than any one person could possibly perceive.

THE IDEA
The coronavirus has forced us to adopt a lifestyle of physical distancing, but we are still a community!
Let's create a piece of performance art that showcases our connection to each other in spite of physical separation.
And let's dedicate it to all of our friends and neighbors.
INSTRUCTIONS
Learn this melody. Be sure you are in tune! (A = 440 hz)
On Saturday, October 10, 2020, at 6:30 pm, go outside your home
- backyard, frontyard, balcony, porch, open window -
and perform the piece continuously for as long as you want.
Let the music join with the natural sound of your neighborhood's environment.
You do NOT need to match tempo or rhythm with anyone else you might hear doing this!
Feel free to use rubato or add silence between the musical phrases however you like.
Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,
you are a part of an enormous performance, and the whole is greater than any one person could possibly perceive.

THE IDEA
The coronavirus has forced us to adopt a lifestyle of physical distancing, but we are still a community!
Let's create a piece of performance art that showcases our connection to each other in spite of physical separation.
And let's dedicate it to all of our friends and neighbors.
INSTRUCTIONS
Learn this melody. Be sure you are in tune! (A = 440 hz)
On Saturday, October 10, 2020, at 6:30 pm, go outside your home
- backyard, frontyard, balcony, porch, open window -
and perform the piece continuously for as long as you want.
Let the music join with the natural sound of your neighborhood's environment.
You do NOT need to match tempo or rhythm with anyone else you might hear doing this!
Feel free to use rubato or add silence between the musical phrases however you like.
Imagine what the combined effect will be to anyone out sitting on their patio.
The music will be as beautifully random as song birds calling to each other in the trees.
You may hear other performers in your area, or you may only hear yourself. But know that, for these few minutes,
you are a part of an enormous performance, and the whole is greater than any one person could possibly perceive.
