Building coordination and control is a journey. Sunita will share tips on practicing that can boost your technique while enjoying and listening to the music you create. \nWe will work with a number of patterns that will become automatic.

In traditional music\, swing brings the tunes to life. Without understanding it\, all the tunes would sound the same. This course is for those who wish to delve deeper into the traditional style and the most important swings of Breton music\, such as those found in the An dro\, the Hanter-dro\, and other typical dances. \nNo prior knowledge is required. You may have already played Breton music\, or you may not. We will begin by gradually learning a few tunes\, step by step\, and then we will explore arrangements and variations. The best way to feel the swing of a tune is to share it with others; therefore\, working in a group is essential. It may even be the only way to truly understand it. Ear training is indispensable in this workshop. \n____________________ \nSpecial Interest Class: Improvisation\nIn this workshop\, we’ll learn to improvise using tools to create groovy bass lines\, rich chords\, and melodic elements. No prior knowledge is required. We’ll proceed step by step\, using simple tools to grasp the process\, with a touch of theory and a dash of analysis (nothing complicated\, just for the joy of learning). Whether you learn by ear or with music\, you’re welcome. \n____________________ \nAbout Tristan\nOriginally from Brittany\, Tristan Le Govic holds a PhD in musicology from the University of Rennes. A gold medalist in Celtic harp and a graduate of the DEM (Diploma of Teaching Music) specializing in traditional music\, his musical and pedagogical style has been shaped by numerous exchanges\, particularly within the countries where he has lived: Ireland\, Scotland\, and Sweden. \nAs a soloist or with various ensembles\, he regularly performs at major music festivals\, including the Lorient Interceltic Festival\, the Dinan International Celtic Harp Festival\, and Yaouank in Rennes\, as well as in Germany (Interkeltisches Folkfestival)\, England (Harp on Wight)\, Belgium (HarpDag)\, Scotland (Celtic Connections\, Edinburgh International Harp Festival)\, Spain (Noia Harp Fest)\, Italy (Insubria\, Celtic Harp International Academy)\, the Netherlands (International Harp Friends Meeting)\, Wales (Cwlwm Celtaidd)\, the Czech Republic (Prague)\, Sweden (Nordic Harp Meeting\, Öresunds HarpHelg)\, the United States (Somerset Folk Harp Festival\, Seattle\, Los Angeles\, San Francisco\, New Orleans)\, Canada (Island Mountain Arts)\, and Russia (ArpaVita). \nIn 2018\, as part of a trio with Tangi Le Hénanff (double bass) and Alan Quéré-Moysan (drums)\, he won the Nevez Flamm trophy\, celebrating innovation in Fest Noz groups (folk dances). Their subsequent CD Dañs\, is the result of their collaboration. Publisher of numerous collections of sheet music for Celtic harp\, he notably published the Antologiezh Telenn Breizh (The Breton Harp Anthology)\, a three-volume collection featuring the best harpists in Brittany (Alan Stivell\, Kristen Noguès\, etc.). Excerpts\, videos\, and blog articles are available online at www.tristanlegovic.eu \nFind Tristan Online:\nWebsite: www.tristanlegovic.eu \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/tristanlegovic \nYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/user/tristanlegovic

SUMMARY:Gallery Opening: Ava and Ama
DESCRIPTION:Ava and Ama are two ladies living in Balne\, a fictional town inspired by the English town of Calne. Xinleh spent a formative year living and working in the UK; a period that still holds a particular tension for her. Charming\, yet the experience is weighted by her first time living alone and by her awareness of how\, as a Singaporean from a former British colony\, she relates to Britain’s colonial history. She is interested in the questions of movement and transformation\, in the shapeshifting nature of the immigrant experience\, where the absurd lurks in the everyday. Through surrealistic devices she seeks to combine inconceivable ideas in unexpected ways– a symbol of establishing one’s unique identity in unfamiliar places. \nAva and Ama live at the edge of distortion\, which reflects the artist’s personal experiences of the visible and unseen. \nIMA acknowledges the support of the Province of British Columbia for keeping our gallery free to attend. \nIMA operates on the territory of the Lhtako Dene Nation\, a traditional land-use area of the Dakelh and Secwépemc peoples\, recognizing their historical and ongoing connection to the land.

SUMMARY:Theatre in the Bog
DESCRIPTION:Join us on August 1st for Theatre in the Bog! \nFeaturing a line-up of the best and brightest artists from the Cariboo and beyond\, Theatre in the Bog offers playful\, daring theatre mixed with a healthy dose of folksy charm. \nBrian Fidler\, the Artistic Director of Ramshackle Theatre\, is working with artists and theatre makers to create magic in the bog just on the edge of Wells. Get out of the black box and see just how wild theatre can be! \nSet in the meadow on the edge of the town of Wells\, on the traditional territory of the Lhtako Dene\, in an area with significant land use of the Dakelh and Secwépemc peoples\, Theatre in the Bog leaves the seats and stages behind\, allowing creators to explore beyond the boundaries of conventional theatre. Against a backdrop of scrubby spruce\, pine and willow\, audiences are led through the woods to see original performances that artists have cooked up over the course of a week.
