On Thursday, October 10, the Acadia School of Music Concert & Lecture Series presents “Reflections on Singing In Flanders Fields.”

In the spring of 2024, members of the Acadia University Singers embarked on an incredible choir tour across France and Belgium.  Participating in WWI-oriented research projects conducted by Dr. Michelle Boyd (School of Music) and Wendy Robicheau (Acadia Archives), the choir offered concerts, visited the gravesites of Acadia’s WWI soldiers, and – literally – sang in Flanders Fields.  In this presentation, Michelle and the choir will share photos and recordings as they discuss their experiences and reflections from this deeply impactful trip.

This event begins at 1:00pm in FESTIVAL THEATRE.

Concert & Lecture Series events are free and all are welcome to attend – please join us!
