–Harmony Hall opening

The Harmony Hall (formerly called the Music Shop) is a building introduced in Season of Performance that specializes in music and musical Instruments. Nearly every Instrument in the game is available in Harmony Hall, so players can try playing them regardless of whether or not they have acquired them. A Music Challenge, song demonstration, and jam session help players perfect a weekly featured Music Sheet. Four Instruments can be purchased, as can five Music Sheets and some Spells.

Overview

Harmony Hall Trailer

Harmony Hall is a two-story building with two possible entrances, both of which lead to the building's first floor. The front entrance is in Village of Dreams, in a building with a red flag depicting a clef symbol, near the skating statue. All players who can access Village of Dreams can enter via the front entrance. The back entrance is via a passage between two buildings in the Village Theater, only available to players who have completed the fourth Quest of Season of Performance.

No Children of Light are found here, however 100 Pieces of Light per day are possible:

• 50 for achieving a moderate level of accuracy in the Music Sheet Challenge
• 50 pieces for achieving a higher level of accuracy in the Music Sheet Challenge (indicated by a swarm of Butterflies that appear around the player's avatar)

All of the Ancestors from Season of Performance are found wandering in Harmony Hall. They are present and visible even if players have never been to the Village Theater before or done any of the Season of Performance Quests (the Quests only affect whether players can use the back entrance).

However, none of the usual Spirits or Season Guide interactions are possible here; meaning that it is not possible to relive their memories nor access their Friendship Trees. The Spirit's memories can all be relived in the Village Theater, while their Friendship Trees can only be accessed once they come back as Traveling Spirit; the Performance Guide's Friendship Tree can be accessed in the Village Theater.

First Floor

Both entrances are at the same end of the first floor, on either side of a Prop Outfit Shrine: The entrance from Village of Dreams is through the tall, grated panel; the entrance from the Village Theater is in the corner behind the stairs (only available once the fourth Quest of Season of Performance has been completed). The entrances are at one end of a large central area; the Front Counter is at the other end. On the right side of the central area are the stairs leading to the second floor. The left side has a workshop area near the entrance and an alcove filled with decorative Music Sheets past the front counter. Various demonstration musical Instruments fill the walls throughout the entire first floor.

The large table at the far end of the central area, named the Front Counter, has a violin sitting on it. This violin cannot be played; clicking on it accesses the in-app purchase Instruments. A scroll sitting at the other end of table acts as a mini Spell Shop.

A decorative panel hanging on the wall behind the Front Counter showcases five Instruments, all of which are purely decorative and cannot be played. The Instruments seen here are, from left to right, the Guitar, the Electric Guitar, the Triumph Handpan, a variant of the Bugle, and a variant of the Prophecy Drum. The last two are similar in shape to past Season Ultimate Gifts, but are colored/decorated differently.

The Forgetful Storyteller sits to the right of the front counter, under the stairs, where they act as the Harmony Hall Guide. The other four Ancestors from the Season of Performance are also found in Harmony Hall. The Performance Guide and the Frantic Stagehand wander throughout the entire building, acting out various Expressions and occasionally offering jam sessions. The Modest Dancer is generally found in the workshop area. The Mellow Musician is always upstairs offering to demonstrate the weekly featured Music Sheet, which players can join them in.

Left of the Front Counter, in a corner, a small stool offers players a Music Challenge, by clicking on the exclamation mark. The walls of this area display many music sheets, though they are purely decorative. Some of the curtains automatically move and reveal more music sheets when the player comes near.

To the right of the Front Counter, a door leads to the Rehearsal Room, where players can practice with their equipped Instrument, in a quiet, private setting.

Second Floor

The Second Floor Mural

The Second Floor has two areas where players can jam alongside some Performance Spirits.

The Mellow Musician is standing in the middle of the second floor balcony, with a music note icon that activates their song demonstration. Past the Mellow Musician, in the right corner, a bouquet and a guitar can be found near some stools; this is where the jam session with the Performance Guide and Frantic Stagehand is periodically available, once the Spirits have gone up to the second floor and arrive in this corner.

In the center of the second floor, in the double height area, there are three large, golden balls swinging in a Newton's cradle pendulum; their regular rhythmic movement acts like a metronome. On the far wall there is a mural with a stylized representation of the Village Theater with people cheering and looking up to a stage where AURORA stands. A side room near the top of the stairs leads to a painting workshop where the theater backdrops are being touched up.

A Jam Station can be found at the end of the long hallway near the stairs. Walls of the hallway are adorned by work in progress backdrops for the Village Theater made by Frantic Stagehand. The machine can be used to create short musical bits with four separate Instrument tracks for the Piano, Contrabass, Drum and Flute accordingly. The notes are arranged vertically and the player can select which notes to play for each row. The total number of rows that can be programmed for each track is 16, the pitch range of Instruments is only one octave, and the tempo of playback is fixed.

Activities

Demonstration Instruments

Map of Village Theater and Harmony Hall, by @sky_solsuga

In Harmony Hall, some of the game's Instruments are displayed as working copies.

Any of the displayed Instruments can be picked up and played until they are unequipped again. When returning the Instrument to their place, a text promt at the bottom of the screen tells players where the Spirit which offers the Instrument is located (though no further information except the Spirit's location is given).

Note that in addition, there is a Prop Closet on the first floor (between the two entrances), where players can equip any of their already purchased Instruments.

The first floor's workshop on the left side when entering Harmony Hall through the Village of Dreams, is where working copies of some of the percussion and string Instruments are located.

The Percussion Instruments are:

• The Triumph Saxophone is displayed on a counter in an opening in the wall, on the player's immediate left when entering from the Village of Dreams. Three white candles on the floor in front of the counter need to be lit in order for the Instrument to appear.
• In the corner behind the Triumph Saxophone: the Drum, the Large Bell, and the Small Bell.

The String Instruments are displayed against the back wall of the workshop. From left to right:

• The Guitar, the Ukulele, and the Lute
• The Electric Guitar in an alcove by itself
• The Harp in a shelf, the Contrabass on the floor, leaning against some boxes

Behind and respectively left and right of the Front Counter, more Instruments are displayed.

On a wall behind and left of the Front Counter, left to right:

• The Kalimba
• In an alcove in the wall, the Piano above the Winter Piano
• The Xylophone

The Wind Instruments are displayed on the wall behind and to the right of the Front Counter. From left to right:

• The Flute, propped up against a beam
• An alcove displaying the Panflute above the Horn

Rehearsal Room

Rehearsal Room Entrance

In the far right corner on the first floor, there is a door leading to the Rehearsal Room, also known as the Practice Room. The room is empty except for a few decorative elements and a big, golden treble clef at the back of the wall, bent towards the ground. Once approached, a hand icon appears on it, putting the treble clef upright once selected. Upon doing so, a music note icon appears above the player's head, which enables them to practice their equipped Instrument with no additional background noise.

Rehearsal Room Interior

This function is only available inside the Rehearsal Room and can only be performed if the player already has one of their owned Instruments equipped on their back. During practice, other players cannot be seen in the room, there will be no sounds from other players, and other players can't hear the player using their Instrument. However, any other sound will still be audible, including ambient noises and in-game alerts, so muting the sound effects for further silence is advised.

Featured Music Sheet

Each week a set of three specific parts of different Music Sheets is featured in Harmony Hall. Each Music Sheet part is used for one of the music performances in the Hall: the Music Challenge to the left of the Front Counter, the Song Demonstration by the Mellow Musician, and the Jam Session with the Performance Guide and Frantic Stagehand.

The featured Music Sheets change at reset 11:59 PM (UTC-8) Sunday night; each set of sheets is featured from Monday to Sunday. Currently only 5 possible sets of Music Sheet parts can be featured, in rotation.

In the tables below, the currently featured Music Sheet parts are labelled in the "ID" column.

Music Challenge

In the far left corner on the first floor of Harmony Hall, a small stool offers players the Music Challenge, activated by clicking on the exclamation mark above it. The challenge requires players to play the current week's featured Music Sheet part. The Instrument the player uses during the challenge is predetermined and cannot be changed. If the Music Sheet is played accurately enough, the player will be rewarded with up to 100 Pieces of Light per day. Players can make multiple attempts to complete the challenge if they don’t receive the full quantity the first time.

The quantity of Light is awarded in two halves. 50 Pieces of Light are awarded for a moderate level of accuracy, which appear as a cluster of light floating near the floor. Another 50 Pieces of Light are awarded if a higher level of accuracy is achieved, appearing as a cluster higher up in the air. The challenge can be repeated as many times as one likes per day, but each Light reward can only be received once per day.

Song Demonstration

On the second floor, the Mellow Musician can be found standing on a small stage. Upon approaching the Spirit, players are given a chance to "Play along while the Spirit demonstrates a song". Both the player and Spirit use the same Instrument that is selected by default with the current week's featured Music Sheet. A different Music Sheet can be selected at any time during the performance. Once the performance is over (or has been cancelled), the Mellow Musician claps and offers the player a Hug. After each performance, players are able to request another demonstration. No reward is given for this task.

Jam Session

On the second floor, in the right corner by a flower bouquet near some stools, is where players can participate in a Jam Session with the Performance Guide and the Frantic Stagehand. This activity is only possible when the Ancestors are standing in front of the bouquet, which first happens 8.5 minutes after the player enters Harmony Hall. They stand there for 3.5 minutes, then repeat their 18.5 minute-long cycle of walking through the Hall, before returning to the bouquet once again.

When selecting the music note icon, the player is asked, "Do you want to jam together?". By default, the player plays the current week's featured Music Sheet part, while the Spirits play two other parts from the same Music Sheet. The player may instead choose a different Music Sheet (any purchased one) to play at anytime during the Jam Session.

Purchases

Premium Candle Shop

Four Instruments are permanently available in Harmony Hall as in-app purchases, some of which are inspired by previously released Instruments. The Instruments can be purchased by selecting the the gift icon over the violin on the Front Counter.

Fledgling Harp

"Crafted to inspire any beginner artist to shine."

The Fledgling Harp is inspired by the Harp with a new visual design; a white wing shape, marked with a blue treble clef on the front. Both Harps share the same sound. This Instrument was introduced in 2022 and is permanently available for $4.99 from the Front Counter in Harmony Hall.

Triumph Handpan

"Tuned to perfection from materials imbued with the dulcet tones of the Sanctuary Islands bell tower."

The Triumph Handpan is inspired by the Sanctuary Handpan with a new design; a dark blue body with yellow tassels and a treble clef symbol on its center. Compared to the original Handpan, it has a hollower sound. This Instrument was introduced in 2022 and is permanently available for $19.99 from the Front Counter in Harmony Hall.

Handpan notes relative to base major scale, by Kathykitty#8028

The Handpan plays the percussion part on Music Sheets. As with all percussion Instruments, it only has 8 notes. These notes are a subset (DACDFGAC in C major) of two medium-pitch octaves: i.e., the first row notes are D₃, A₃, C₄, and D₄ (from left to right); the second row notes are F₄, G₄, A₄, and C₅. These are a subset of the notes played by the Harp. The notes shift based upon the current key, as with all Instruments, so more generally the Handpan's notes correspond to notes 2, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, and 15 of the Harp. These notes are the pentatonic scale of the 4th note of the major scale, i.e., when playing C Major Music Sheet, the Handpan is F Major pentatonic. When playing in the keys of G, A♭, A, B♭ or B Major, the Handpan's notes are shifted down by one octave, correspond to notes of the Horn instead.

Note that when playing with other Instruments, other players' notes (the purple notes) are shown based on location, not pitch. So in C Major, if a Harp plays A₄ (its 6th note), the note that turns purple for the Handpan is its 6th note, which is G₄ instead of A₄.

Triumph Violin

"Finely crafted for the aspiring virtuoso."

The Triumph Violin is blue with a yellow trim and red shoulder rest marked with a treble clef. It has the sustained notes feature, similar to i.e. the Voice of AURORA. This Instrument was introduced in 2023 during Days of Music and is permanently available for $19.99 from the Front Counter in Harmony Hall.

The Triumph Violin plays the string part on Music Sheets. Its pitch is the same as the standard Piano (in C Major, it covers C₄ to C₆).

Fledgling Upright Piano

"Honed to suit any beginner's needs. Can be carried with you, or placed in your Nest for others to try their hand upon its keys."

The Fledgling Upright Piano consists of a gray upright piano with blue accents and which is marked with the Season of Belonging symbol, and a stone stool with a blue cushion. Unlike most other Instruments, this item also functions as a placeable Prop that can be used to decorate Shared Spaces. The player must first place down the item, then sit on the stool to play. This Prop was introduced in 2024 and is available for $4.99 from the front desk in Harmony Hall. Although this Prop first appeared as part of the Days of Music event, it remains permanently available in the game.

Spell Shop

Shared Memory Spells are available by clicking on the Spell Shop icon above the scroll on the right of the Front Counter. One Shared Memory Spell is always available for 5 , and another is only available from Friday through Sunday for 4 .

Harmony Hall Guide

Harmony Hall Guide Table

Acting as the Harmony Hall Guide, the Forgetful Storyteller sits at a table under the stairs on Harmony Hall's first floor. Their Friendship Tree can only be accessed once the player has sat down on the small stool in front of the table. Five Music Sheets can be purchased from them, four of which are available for 10 , and one for 5 . For a limited time only, the Musical Hairpin was available to purchase for 50 . It later returned for Days of Music 2023.

Note that the Forgetful Storyteller and the Harmony Hall Guide have two separate Friendship Trees; the former can only be accessed once they return as Traveling Spirit.

Triumph Saxophone

The Triumph Saxophone is white with gold accents and marked with a treble clef on the bell. Like the Triumph Violin, it has the sustained notes feature. This Instrument was introduced in 2023 and was available for 102 from the Harmony Hall Guide. Although this Instrument first appeared as part of the Days of Music event, it will remain permanently available in the game.

The Triumph Saxophone plays the wind part on Music Sheets. Its pitch is one octave below the standard Piano (in C Major, it covers C₃ to C₅).

Jam Station

The Jam Station is a gray rectangular sequencer cut into four segments, with a blue cloth framing the front, and blue paint on the front and back. The segments are also decorated with colored diamonds, some of which are lit differently between them. Each section uses different Instruments based on the four Music Sheet Parts: the purple section uses Melody, the red section uses Bass, the blue section uses Percussion, and the yellow section uses Wind. It allows editing of each of these parts independently, and always loops. To use it, players must stand anywhere behind the Prop, then interact with a in-use Instrument's icon. While using the Prop, the player's avatar sways side to side in-place, and when a note is selected, the avatar uses their hands to press on the Jam Station. It is a placeable Prop that can be used to decorate Shared Spaces. When carried on its owner's back, it appears as a single simplified segment.

This Prop was introduced in 2024 and is available for 250 from the Harmony Hall Guide at Harmony Hall. Although this Prop first appeared as part of the Days of Music event, it remains permanently available in the game. The Jam Station is also permanently available for use on the second floor of Harmony Hall, in the Painting Workshop. An unobtainable special version is available on the Office rooftop during the Sky Anniversary event only.

The 2022 Grand Opening

The Harmony Hall Guide with the Hairpin available during the Grand Opening

To celebrate its arrival, the Harmony Hall had a special 2-week Grand Opening event, from 00:00 Monday May 23 until 23:59 Sunday June 5, 2022. A limited-time Musical Hairpin was available to commemorate the opening, and Social Light was added to the central hall. During the event, players could also obtain Spells for each of the three new Instruments. All other features of Harmony Hall are permanent and remained available after the end of the Grand Opening. The Instrument Spells and the Hairpin later returned in 2023, but not the Social Lights.

Musical Hairpin

The Musical Hairpin Hair Accessory is a small blue hairpin in the shape of a treble clef, attached to the player's left ear. This item was introduced as a limited-time offer in 2022 during the Grand Opening for 50 from the Harmony Hall Guide. The Hairpin later returned in 2023 during Days of Music.

Social Light

Players who gathered in Harmony Hall were able to collect social light — Pieces of Light that would periodically appear and fall inside the hall. This social light shared the same maximum as most of the game's Social Light.

Trivia

• The Musical Hairpin is a recolor of a Chinese server-exclusive Hair Accessory. It was originally colored gold.
• The mural found on the second floor was a teaser for Season of AURORA and was later shown in the AURORA Teaser Trailer released by TGC.
• Before Days of Music 2023, the Rhythm Guitar used to be displayed on the Front Counter, and the Triumph Handpan was placed where now the Triumph Saxophone is.
