We kicked February off with an hour-long recording of Laurier’s own Free Improv Renegade Ensemble (FIRE). The concert was held at the Button Factory in April of 2010, the final FIRE concert of that season. FIRE is still continuing today, with workshops every Monday night in the John Aird Building. For all those interested in checking it out, here’s a link to their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/wlufire/

The Sound is a show run by the CIA (Composers and Improvisors Association), a group of students on campus that represent student artists.  The Sound features music, sound art, poetry, spoken word, short stories (anything really!) that is written by Laurier student, alumni, and faculty.  We would love to have some of your works on the show, if you are an artist at Laurier and what to get your work on The Sound, please do so by sending your file(s) here:          www.facebook.com/laurier.cia          and send us a brief description of your piece.
