Choral Fest 2023

October 20, 2023 @ 12:00 pm October 22, 2023 @ 5:00 pm

Choral Fest 2023
October 20-22
Mount Allison University, Sackville, New Brunswick
Johannes Brahms Schicksalslied and Various Canadian songs
Hosted by The Mount Allison Choral Society
Conductor Kiera Galway
Accompanist Thomas Gonder
and the Mount Allison University Chamber Orchestra
Conducted by James Kalyn

Early bird deadline to register is Wednesday,
September 20, 2023.

Join singers from around the region in one of the world’s greatest
choral works.
Brahms’ Schicksalslied (Song of Fate) is an orchestrally accompanied
choral setting of a poem written by Friedrich Hölderlin, and has all
of Brahms’ characteristic force and emotion: longing, dramatic tension
and expansive joy. By some estimations Brahms’ best choral work, it
has retained its popularity ever since it was composed and is a
must-sing in the repertoire of every choral singer.
Every year since 1982 until the pandemic year of 2020, singers from
New Brunswick and beyond gathered at the New Brunswick Choral
Federation’s Choral Fest to rehearse and perform a great choral work
under one of Canada’s leading conductors. The New Brunswick Choral
Federation is delighted to have Dr. Kiera Galway, along with the Mount
Allison University Choral Society and Chamber Orchestra, and Christ
Church Cathedral’s Thomas Gonder, to support the full return of this
joyful event.

This year’s organizers want Choral Fest to be a true festival of
choirs, with as much participation from choirs as we can have. So,
please check out the Come As A Choir rate!

Please register as soon as possible, so that we can provide music to
you in a timely manner.

Workshop DescriptionThe Art of Screenwriting 

You have a great idea for a TV show. Or maybe it’s a feature film? A digital series? Whatever it is, you need a script. And while there are as many rules for screenwriting as there are books on the subject, the art of writing for film and television boils down to some simple basics: keep your characters active; show, don’t tell; and give us somebody to root for.

From story engines to character creation to the proofing pass, join executive producer Amy Cameron to learn more about how to take an idea from your napkin to the screen. This workshop will have something for everyone from first-time screenwriters to those with a few scripts under their belt looking to brush up on the basics and get some tips from an experienced producer.

AX Intro to Linocut Printing with Caitlin Wilson 🎨

June 10, 2023 @ 10:00 am 5:00 pm

Please join AX in welcoming Caitlin Wilson as she demonstrates the method of relief printmaking with linocut. Relief printing is the oldest medium of printmaking and is certainly the most accessible printmaking medium. This is an ideal medium for beginners as it is easy to work with, has a low start-up cost, and does not require the use of a printmaking press, making it extremely accessible to those who may be interested in pursuing it after the workshop.

Register online, by phone at (506) 433-8351, or in person at 12 Maple Avenue, Sussex.

The event itself will be on Saturday, June 10 from 10:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Location: In person, AX Workshop Room
