TERRY COPP - THE IRISH CANADIAN RANGERS IN CANADA AND IRELAND, 1914-17
2022-09-29 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Toronto) | Virtual – OnLine, Ontario, Canada
The Irish Canadian Rangers began as a Militia Regiment in 1915 after Catholic and Protestant Irish agreed to cooperate. After the battle of Second Ypres, the regiment contributed a full company to the 60th Battalion and began a campaign to persuade Sam Hughes to promise that an Irish Canadian Rangers battalion would go overseas as the 199th under its own officers. Recruiting began in 1916 and continued despite the Easter Rebellion in Dublin and the growing turmoil in Ireland. The 199th struggled to reach full strength but responded favorably to a British request to tour Ireland before joining the 5th Canadian Division.
Drawing upon research for his recent book, Montreal At War, 1914–1918, Terry Copp examines both Irish and Canadian history in this dramatic, formative period.
This hybrid event will be hosted in-person and broadcasted live via Zoom.
If you would like to attend in-person, the event will take place at 232 King St N. Doors will open at 6:30pm.

*Comfy setting (candles on tables etc)

*All musicians welcome!

*Folk and Irish is the general style but we’re open to anything fun! (East coast tunes / original songs / parodies / country & acoustic versions of rock songs!)

We want to create a fun, welcoming environment where those interested in folk and Irish music can have fun playing music & singing together. It’s not a gig. We sit around a table and go around in a circle where everyone has an equal chance to lead a song or tune.

Everyone is equally welcome – from beginner musicians to experts.

It’s a chance to share a few tunes or songs you like with others & to learn old tunes / songs & accompany others.

Music is a catalyst for happiness. Friends meet. Enough said.

SHINE Music Bursary DEADLINE
2023-01-15 | Ontario
The SHINE Music Bursary is intended to support youth living in the GTA and surrounding communities who face personal and/or financial barriers impeding their study or practice of traditional or folk music.
http://shineconcert.ca/the-jim-fay-music-bursary/apply/
This bursary is available to youth who:

Face financial barriers which impede their practice and/or study of music
Are between the ages of 16 and 24
Are living in the Greater Toronto Area or surrounding communities
Are seeking to further their study or practice of traditional or folk music*.
(*This includes roots, Celtic, bluegrass, and singer-songwriter, etc., accompanied by a musical instrument. This does not include classical, nor music which has been created by digital production, sampling or computer.)

Originally known as the Jim Fay Music Bursary, SHINE was inaugurated in 2010 by the family and friends of Jim Fay. Native to Ireland but home in Toronto, Jim played guitar and mandolin and was an ardent fan and performer of Celtic, folk and acoustic music. Jim had always been very involved in Toronto’s music community and he consistently encouraged others to foster their musical pursuits. In 2008, Jim died of a heart attack just a few days shy of his 45th birthday. A music bursary to assist struggling young folk musicians seemed a fitting way in which to honour Jim’s memory.
Candidates wishing to apply may do so at any time throughout the year. Applications received by January 15th will be considered for this year by our Selection Committee, which is made up of music industry professionals, performers and youth agency workers, among others. This year’s award(s) will be announced early in the new year and will be presented at the next SHINE! Concert fundraising event. Applications received after the submission deadline may be considered among the following years’ applications.
