SUMMARY:Focus on Canadian Composers
DESCRIPTION:This concert is built around a new album of Canadian works that guitarists Steve Cowan and Adam Cicchillitti will be releasing with Analekta in October 2019. These pieces aim to push the technical limits of the instrument and communicate a message that is boldly Canadian; one that celebrates the variety of musical influences that inspire our composers. From the Balinese gamelan to heavy metal\, from progressive rock to Latin American grooves\, the album “Focus” fuses an eclectic mix of popular musical styles with classical music through the medium of the guitar. \nFunded by MusicAction and the Canada Council for the Arts\, Cicchillitti and Cowan champion the 21st century guitar with their “focus” on new Canadian music.

SUMMARY:In Waves | A Presentation by Darcy Spidle
DESCRIPTION:Just over a decade ago\, Darcy Spidle (aka chik white) moved to West Chezzetcook\, a small coastal village outside of Halifax\, Nova Scotia. Around that time a friend gave him a toy jaw harp as a birthday gift. The harp worked well enough that Spidle became obsessed with playing it\, and he became especially fond of taking it on hikes along the rugged coastline near his home. For Spidle\, jaw harp and the sea have been intertwined ever since\, a fact well documented throughout his substantial discography. \nAs his jaw harp technique advanced\, so did Spidle’s use of ocean recordings. The early recordings are simple: rhythmic drones on the harp and waves pounding in the distance. Later releases involve more abstract engagement with the instrument and increasingly experimental approaches to capturing marine audio—recording from a musical raft adrift at sea\, noisemining magnet tape dredged from the ocean floor\, amplifying hurricane wind\, etc. With his talk at the CMC\, Darcy will attempt to explain the evolution of his work as both a jaw harp player and field recordist. \nAdmission is Free \nIf you cannot join in person\, tune in to the Livestream of the presentation! \nBanner Image Credit: Alex Pearson
