Once upon a time, there were four guys (Sparky, Smudge, Jinx and Frankie) who loved to sing. They all met in high school when they joined the Audiovisual Club. Discovering they shared an affection for music and entertaining, they got together and dreamed of becoming like their idols, the Four Aces, the Four Lads, the Four Freshmen, the Hi-los and the Crew Cuts. They rehearsed in the basement of Smudge's family's plumbing supply company. It was there they became Forever Plaid, a name that connects traditional values of family, home and harmony.

Celebrate and remember the Canadian, British and American stars who served in uniform with popular and military music from the Great Wars. Windjammers, a 40-piece wind ensemble conducted by retired Lieut. Colonel Harry Currie, will reminisce with selections by composers including Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, and Henry Mancini and marches from the three countries. This concert will truly honour both past and present Allied Military.

Formed in 1993, Windjammers is best described as a hybrid: part concert band and part stage band. The group includes the full instrumentation of a concert band with oboes, bassoons, French horns and a full percussion section, as well as a pianist, a string bass player, a jazz drummer, and a second tenor saxophone player. The group is led by Harry Currie, Artistic Director and Conductor and a former Canadian Army Director of Music. Currie has served in the Canadian and British armies and was a Canadian Army Director of Music. His musical accomplishments extend far beyond the Armed Forces and include an HMV recording contract, work in films and performances with such legends as Frank Sinatra and Buddy Rich.

A portion of the proceeds from this event will be donated to the Military Families Fund.

Join the JUNO Award winning Cape Breton fiddler for an electrifying performance of traditional East Coast sound for contemporary times. It's a signature sound that has resonated with world audiences through 10 albums, multiple gold sales figures and 27 years; numerous JUNO and East Coast Music Awards; two honorary degrees (from Niagara University, NY, and Trent University) and an honorary doctorate (St. Thomas University); the Order Of Canada - and a reputation as one of Canada's most captivating performers.

MacMaster also has the respect and admiration of the crème de la crème of top-notch musicians: master violinist Mark O’Connor, whose camp MacMaster frequents as a guest instructor; legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma – who recently invited her to prominently participate as a guest performer on his 2008 holiday-themed album Songs Of Joy & Peace; banjo prodigy Béla Fleck; fellow fiddling marvel Alison Krauss; spiritually electrifying superstar guitarist Carlos Santana – the list goes on. But to Natalie MacMaster, her beloved family now shapes and informs her musicianship as much as the jigs, reels, air, waltzes, strathspeys, marches and traditional folk that feed her spiritual soul.

Join us for an intimate evening as part of our Relaxed Series, complete with dessert and beverage service in a cabaret style setting on the main level.
