Location: Denton Hall
On Thursday, March 20, the Acadia School of Music Concert & Lecture Series presents the keynote address for the "Teachings of the Water Festival" by special guest T. Patrick Carrabr茅.
An award-winning M茅tis composer living in Vancouver, Dr. Carrabr茅 is a professor of composition at the University of British Columbia and the director of the Chan Centre of the Performing Arts. The creation of shared musical spaces with indigenous and non-western musicians is a significant theme of his work and since the dawn of the Truth and Reconciliation era, he has created a number of musical works confronting issues of decolonization.
