When the Hall Fell Silent

Synopsis

Northmere, England, 1954. The choir hall’s lease is ending, and sound archivist Ada Mercer has one chance to preserve its music on tape. A long-overlooked arranger has conditions of her own, and even the quietest room carries competing ideas about remembrance. Told through fourteen letters, this intimate historical story explores credit, privacy, and the imperfect work of listening well.
