Stolen Voices

The 17th Annual Remembrance Day Concerts

November 8 & 11, 2009

Their terrified, haunted expressions stare at us from television screens, newspapers, and the internet. They are children and young people caught amidst the cataclysm of war. Stolen Voices will view war through the eyes of these innocents, with readings from diaries written by children and mothers dating from WWI through to the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. The concert will feature newly commissioned works by Larry Nickel, Marcus Goddard, and Ken Cormier.
