“Canada
is unique in its originality of wilderness spaces. It is in this
context that I have sought to reinvest the Canadian acoustic
environment/soundscape and the living sounds of our land with dignity
while celebrating it with public awareness and education. This is done
using the unique and unusual properties of the alphorn in out-of-door
as well as concert hall settings.”
Michael Cumberland
“Dunain”1986
“Nothing is more
important than raising a generation well - teaching our children the
best values, the noblest ideals, and highest levels of integrity. When
we, as communities of learners do this, we entrust the future to
good.”
Michael Cumberland
“Dunain” May 22, 2000
