Apr 4th, 2018
A former director of the School of Music will return to Windsor for the Music Alumni Weekend, April 6 to 8.
Gillian MacKay, who was director of the school in 2004-05, taught trumpet and conducting and led the Wind Ensemble and Windsor Community Orchestra while at UWindsor. She will lead a conducting workshop Saturday morning in the SoCA Armouries, drawing on her study of mime and acting technique to encourage physical expressivity and a nuanced gestural range.
Other events in the weekend include:
- the Jazz Ensemble Concert and Cabaret, Friday at 8 p.m. at the Water’s Edge Event Centre;
- an alumni tour of the new downtown campus of the School of Creative Arts at 3 p.m. Saturday;
- an Alumni Recital featuring a brass group, a choir, a percussion group, and more at 7:30 p.m. Saturday in the Performance Hall; and
- the Wind Ensemble Concert at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at the Capitol Theatre.
