All The World’s A Stage

My vocation has me recording in small booths. That recording will then be edited to use in a radio or TV commercial, or for a corporate narration such as a medical procedure or eLearning project.

Sometimes the recording is used for events like awards dinners or conferences. Occasionally, the client requests that the announcements are done live, side stage, during the event.

Recently, I had the privilege of being on stage to perform the live narration for an epic concert presentation.

Close to one thousand guests attended the world premiere of “Bound for Canada – A Musical Journey from Hardship to Hope” ~

an epic composition depicting the harrowing journey of Irish famine migrants en route to the Americas in 1847.

As a child of Irish immigrants, it was a distinct honour to be part of such an immense production that included forty musicians and sixty singers.

My six narrative segments were intended to weave historical context into music and song that filled Toronto’s elegant

as part of Irish Heritage Month in March.

It’s a privilege to return as the voice for Fallsview Casino’s concert division following the past few years of, well, ya know, that whole surreal period.

We witnessed Billy Joel christen the beautiful hall in February.
