Here’s another sonic sampling from last week’s Open Telescopes night as described in the previous post.

The meditative, mystical music of Alan Hovhaness seemed perfect to go along with this magical view of Toronto from the open air rooftop terrace and as visitors peered into the heavens through University of Toronto’s urban telescopes.

Hope to see you at the next free Public Tour on Thursday April 1st @ 9pm!
