GOULD ACADEMY PERFORMING ARTS SERIES PRESENTS:
Thursday, January 10th at 7pm - Pavlo
A Canadian-born son of Greek immigrants, Pavlo Simtikidis has carved out a niche in a growing international market for what he terms a Mediterranean sound mixing the folkoric styles of Greek and Latin music with pop sensibilities. http://www.pavlo.net/home.php
Thursday, April 10th at 7pm - Grand Dérangement
Grand Dérangement is a group from the Saint Mary's Bay area of Southwestern Nova Scotia. The name Grand Dérangement refers to the expulsion of the Acadians in 1755, but the name also alludes to the group wanting to rouse its audience. The music is exciting, the show is a visual feast, and the highly poetic songs, while insightful, defy the audience to sit still. The bow fires up the fiddle...the sparks fly... http://www.grandderangement.com/index-en.htm
COMMUNITY TICKETS ARE $6.00 Adults ad $4.00 for Students
