Composers and musician, like all artists, reflect their times and experiences in ways words may not reach.
My guest today is Richard Hornsby, the Director of Music at UNB Musical Arts and founder of the Atlantic Sinfonia. This weekend, the Sinfonia will be presenting a collection of works by composers reacting to — and in some cases, not surviving — World War I, sometimes referred to as “The Great War”. Richard tells me a couple of the stories surrounding the music they’ll be featuring, and how music changed during and after the war.
Remembering ‘The Great War’ Through Music will take place on November 13 at 2:00pm at Memorial Hall at UNB.
