On Monday, March 27, 2023, for an hour beginning at 8 p.m. NDT (6:30 p.m. EDT, 2230 UTC/GMT), The Newfoundland and Labrador Folk Arts Society will present a FREE live stream of Pamela Morgan, who is one of my favourite Newfoundland singers. It can be accessed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXJJX5BzJw0 . The advantage of watching it live is that you can enter a draw for a door prize, which I think this week is from the Newfoundland Chocolate Company, plus you can insert comments (such as where you are watching from) during the concert. However the recording will be available for watching at the same link after the show is over. Here is Pamela’s bio from that link: "For 19 years, Pamela Morgan was lead singer, guitarist, and arranger for Canada’s pioneering “Celtic” band, Newfoundland’s Figgy Duff, who brought the traditional music of Newfoundland and Labrador to the world stage. Since then, Pamela has been spearheading her own independent record label, Amber Music, producing music for NL's finest roots artists, including four of her own solo CDs, and licensing tracks to various labels worldwide. As solo artist she has graced stages in England, Canada, the US and Europe, and overseen productions of two original scores for live theater; her own folk opera, The Nobleman's Wedding, and Figgy Duff's score for Shakespeare's The Tempest. In 2007 she received an honorary doctorate from Memorial University, and in 2008 embarked upon a different journey, studying Graphic Design at the College of the North Atlantic. This new skill set led to the release of her handmade book Newfoundland Ballads for Piano and Voice in 2011. In 2013 Pamela completed recording Figgy Duff's Tempest score, Sounds and Sweet Airs and released her fourth solo CD, entitled Play On. Further development work of her original folk opera The Nobleman's Wedding is ongoing, inspired by a 2014 production of the opera at the Stephenville Theatre Festival, and work is also ongoing on two new projects; Wetland, and The White Fleet Suite, She continues to write, arrange, and perform in her own highly original and hauntingly beautiful style." -- David Dalton dalton@nfld.com https://www.nfld.com/~dalton (home page) https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html Salmon on the Thorns (mystic page) "I will walk in the garden; And feel religion within; I will learn how to run with the big boys; I will learn how to sink and to swim" (S.

And the advantages of watching the recording after the show is over are that you can watch it whenever you want and you can skip over the intro and intermission. -- David Dalton dalton@nfld.com https://www.nfld.com/~dalton (home page) https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html Salmon on the Thorns (mystic page) "I will walk in the garden; And feel religion within; I will learn how to run with the big boys; I will learn how to sink and to swim" (S.

When she drinks rye, she thinks she’s the Mor(ri)gan. And no doubt she gets called Captain Morgan occasionally. :-) Anyway, her voice is better than ever, and her guitar playing I think has improved. (And while watching the show recording tonight I facilitated a soul alignment of her guitar with Noel Dinn, her partner in Figgy Duff, so I hope she holds on to that guitar.) She did two songs about the briar and the rose, which I relate to due to my blue rose vision near the top of my thorn hill climb. Also one of them was a Newfoundland version of Barbry Ellen, in which the guy is Johnny and not Willie, and I relate to that since my dead parents were named Ellen (Nell) and John. -- David Dalton dalton@nfld.com https://www.nfld.com/~dalton (home page) https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html Salmon on the Thorns (mystic page) "And now the angry morning; Gives the early signs of warning; You must face alone the plans you make; Decisions they will try to break" (S.
