Your reporter was speaking to me about my response to the Laurentian Department of Music closure from my perspective as a performing musician and member of the board of directors of the Sudbury Symphony Orchestra, as well as a former director of the Laurentian Concert Band from 2008-20. As such, our discussion revolved exclusively around the area of instrumental music: woodwinds, brass, and percussion.
Will Morin, a sessional instructor at the former University of Sudbury, said when the offer finally trickled down to him, he had to dig deep to consider accepting. Do I take this offering, this request of me to teach this course in light of all of what was being done, and the behaviour that Laurentian had exhibited? Morin said. It was hard, but ironically, the course that I m teaching is an Indigenous tradition and culture course of which the values that I aspire to, and teach, is about how important it is to be humble.
