About
Boxwood:
Boxwood
shares and explores the roots and branches of musical traditions in a
holistic approach that integrates music, dance, language and crafts in
educational outreach programs for adults, kids and professionals. Boxwood aims to present ideas that encourage
musicians to leave the printed page and find their own voice.
Attention
tune-catchers: The annual week-long Boxwood Canada festival, in the
lovely town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, looks like it would be a great way to
spend a vacation, if total immersion in traditional music is your kind of getaway!
