quiet village

The Quiet Village is a one-day “anti-festival” of ambient music held in and around the Village of New Paltz, located in the Hudson Valley region of New York. QV promotes serious ambient electronic music composers and sound artists, presenting environmental music in an outdoor setting that bypasses the traditional concert format and gallery installation paradigm.


Quiet Village 4.0 is scheduled for September 25 at Hasbrouck Park in New Paltz NY. Click here for submission guidelines.


The Quiet Village:  Ideal for active listening, passive listening, or a sonic field to simply pass through… Read, think, talk, play, daydream, LISTEN. Have you ever tried to hear ALL the sounds around you?


No Noise. No Beats. No Visuals. Pure Ambience…
