On Saturday, March 20, at 7 PM, join us on Facebook as we premier Allison Kirkwood’s new video documentary, Echoes of a Fine-Tuned Valley: Musical Memories from the Jacques-Cartier Area.
Using archival and original film, audio, and photography, her documentary conveys the echoes, links, inspirations and similarities between the different musics that connect the historically English-speaking communities of Shannon, Valcartier, Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury along the Jacques-Cartier River north of Quebec City.
The video premiere will appear on the following Facebook pages on March 20:
