Opening Day
Apr 4th
The 66th Annual Ottawa Kiwanis Music Festival opens today. It’s a month-long music festival held at ten locations across Ottawa with over 10,000 area music students competing. That’s a lot of music!
Students gain performing confidence and benefit from hearing others’ performances and the adjudicator’s comments. There are trophies and scholarships for the top performers.
Performances are open to the public. Admission fees for the regular competition sessions are $5 general, $3 students, and free for children under 12. Festival passes are $20. The schedule can be found here.
I’m proud of each of my students – I know they’ll do well.
All grown up and still waiting to be a Rock Star
Mar 31st
C’mon, ‘fess up. You play an instrument, and you dream of being a rock star.
The League of Rock is here. You can join a rock band and have all the fun without the “I’m sleeping in my car somewhere in northern Ontario because I didn’t get paid from my last gig.” They provide rehearsal space, coaching, performing venues, and a chance to meet other musicians.
Last Sunday I had a great time jamming at League of Rock’s open house. I met some great amateur and pro musicians from right here in Ottawa, and we rocked the house at Zaphod Beeblebrox. Now that my feet have stood on the same stage as The Rolling Stones, I’ll be discovered any day.
You can join the fall session at League Of Rock.
