Being one of the oldest buildings in Harvard Yard, since 1744 this space has served many disparate functions, hosting morning and evening prayers and lectures, and later housing a medical laboratory. Its walls, which have witnessed both contemplation and scientific inquiry, today provide a unique environment for sonic experiences. On this occasion, the chapel will be filled with compositions by Music Department students and guest composers who, in their work, draw on environmental recordings. This experiece will serve as a reminder that science, spirituality, nature and human cultures are not seperate realms, but deeply entangled aspects of life at large.Artists and composers include:Marisse Cato, Victor Arul, John Pax, Seth Torres, Michelle Cheng, Maximiliano Soto Mayorga and othersShelemay Sound Lab The Shelemay Sound Lab offers resources for editing, reviewing, and creating multimedia projects in stereo and multi-channel formats.
