National Music Centre's Rock the Nation offers review of Canada's most famous songs yyc
From Jan. 28 to March 5, the musical will be based at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre. This was the initial plan for the production, which traces the history of Canadian music through our most iconic songs, back in 2012. That was when Jeff Parry of Annerin Productions and Jeff Parry Promotions had the first glimmer of inspiration for the show.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary Herald, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.
“It really never got a lift from that because he still had to build the building and this or that,” says Parry. “It never came together until now.” “People loved it, but financially it didn’t do well,” Parry says. “In my mind, it was always something we should do at the NMC.” The NMC is a perfect home for several reasons. It’s not only the official home of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Canadian Songwriter’s Hall of Fame, the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame and the Francophone ADISQ Music Hall of Fame, but it has also taken the lead in educating the public about the country’s vibrant, if often unheralded, musical history.
