What remains is satisfaction that the 2005 Teaching Showcase was, like others before it, a time for making and renewing collegial contacts, and a time for learning. A dedicated team of volunteers from NSAC faculty and instructional staff were instrumental in guaranteeing the success of the Showcase. These individuals (listed on the previous page) were unwavering in their commitment to this conference. It seems especially appropriate that the NSAC was able to host this Atlantic- wide Teaching Showcase as one of the Centennial Anniversary activities of the institution. In this small way, the long established tradition of teaching excellence at NSAC was honored. Thanks to the Vice President Academic at NSAC for financial support and encouragement of the event at the institutional level. The Teaching Showcase Proceedings are available for the first time in electronic format thanks to the vision of the Organizing Committee. The conference presentations were reviewed with an eye to fitting the AAU mandate; submissions to the Proceedings were submitted to a peer review process before acceptance. These activities were coordinated by Jeff Hoyle and Nancy Pitts. Thanks to Pat Nelson for readily contributing her excellent proofing and editorial skills in the preparation of the Proceedings. Mary Kendall Brooks, of the Office of Instructional Development at Saint Mary’s University, is thanked for her work in the final formatting of the Proceedings document. Both the Teaching Showcase and its Proceedings are made available under the auspices of the Association of Atlantic Universities Faculty Development Committee. The mandate of this AAU group is to promote good teaching and learning at post-secondary institutions in the Atlantic. iv v Anna Fitzgerald Remerciements Graham Pearson Organizing Committee Co-chairs u fil des jours, le souvenir des longues réunions préparatoires et des AAU ’05 Teaching Showcase Adétails organisationnels insolites s’estompe. Ce qui demeure cependant, c’est la satisfaction de savoir que l’Expo-Enseignement 2005 a été, comme les forums précédents, un moment privilégié pour entretenir et établir de nouveaux contacts et pour apprendre davantage. P.S. The editors (JH, NP) are taking the liberty of recognizing Graham Pearson, one of the co-chairs of this teaching conference. As he retires from the faculty Une équipe de bénévoles dévouée du corps professoral du Collège de at NSAC, we wish to pay tribute to him for his long-standing commitment to l’agriculture de la Nouvelle Écosse (NSAC) a joué un rôle actif dans le succès instructional development and initiatives in faculty development at NSAC. de l’Expo-Enseignement. Ces personnes (dont la liste apparaît à la page Happy ‘retirement’ Graham! précédente) ont été d’une fidélité exemplaire. D’ailleurs, il est approprié que le NSAC ait accueilli l’Expo Enseignement du Canada atlantique dans le cadre des activités entourant le centenaire de l’institution. Par ce geste modeste, la longue tradition d’excellence en enseignement du NSAC a été reconnue. Merci au vice-président à l’académique du NSAC pour son aide financière et l’appui de son institution au niveau organisationnel. Pour la première fois, grâce à la clairvoyance du comité organisateur, les Actes de l’Expo-Enseignement sont disponibles en format électronique. Les propositions de communications ont été soumises à un contrôle par les pairs et ont été examinées dans le cadre du mandat de l’Association des universités de l’Atlantique (AUA) avant d’être acceptées. Ces activités ont été coordonnées par Jeff Hoyle et Nancy Pitts. Merci à Pat Nelson pour son excellent travail de révision et de préparation des textes pour la publication des Actes. Nous exprimons également notre gratitude à Mary Kendall Brooks, du Bureau du développement pédagogique de l’Université Saint Mary’s, qui a travaillé au formatage final de ce document. L’Expo-Enseignement, ainsi que les Actes, sont des projets du Comité pour le développement professionnel de l’Association des universités de l’Atlantique.

  • Pressemeddelelse
    12. jan. 2016 RUNRIG “THE STORY” Pressemeddelelse Den 29. januar udsender skotske Runrig sit 14. album,”The Story”. På forhånd har bandet meddelt, at dette er det sidste studiealbum fra deres hånd. Det er 9 år siden, der sidst kom en samling nye sange fra det populære keltisk-inspirerede folkrock band, og der var på forhånd knyttet store forventninger til et udspil, som har været så lang tid undervejs. “The Story” blev kort før jul præsenteret for en række internationale journalister og musikfolk i Glasgow. Bedømt ud fra foreløbige udmeldinger fra nogle af disse er ”The Story” blandt de bedste Runrig-albums nogensinde. Albummet indeholder en række utroligt stærke sange, der som altid skrevet af brødrene Rory og Calum Macdonald, som for 42 år siden var med til at danne bandet. De nye sange handler ikke unaturligt om de mange år som en del af et stort band og om de drømme som lå bag. Bandets yngste medlem, den 35-årige keyboardspiller Brian Hurren, har for første gang produceret et Runrig-album. Han har formået at skabe en fornyelse af lyden men stadig med grundlag i den store, velkendte og populære keltiske rocklyd, som altid har været kendetegnende for Runrig. The Story of The Story Runrig kommer til Danmark for at præsentere det nye album. Det sker i Fredericia på det Bruunske Pakhus, torsdag den 28. Januar kl. 20.00. Her fortæller de fra scenen ”The Story of The Story”, hvorefter der bliver mulighed for eksklusive interviews med bandet. Samme aften offentliggøres de 4 sommer- koncerter, som bandet spiller i Danmark i år.

  • Two Concerts (Live at the Rockpalast 1996 & 2001)
    Runrig – One Legend – Two Concerts (Live At The Rockpalast 1996 & 2001) (jeweils 125 Minuten, 2x DVD, 4x CD, MIG Music, 2020) Die Geschichte der schottischen Insitution Runrig endete 2018 und im Moment läuft die Vermarktung des Erbes dieser legendären Band auf Hochtouren. Neben dem umfangreichen Abschiedsgeschenk „The Last Dance“ und einer gut sortieren „Rarities“-Sammlung erscheint nun mit „One Legend – Two Concerts“ eine weitere Veröffentlichung, die nicht nur für den harten Kern der „Riggies“ (so nennen sich die Runrig-Fans) interessant sein dürfte. Die zwei auf „One Legend – Two Concerts“ enthaltenen Konzerte spiegeln zwei unterschiedliche Abschnitte in der Bandhistorie wieder. Die Aufnahmen liegen jeweils als Konzertvideo auf DVD sowie als reine Audio-CD im Doppelformat bei. Die Veröffentlichung bringt es so in einer handlichen Box auf insgesamt sechs Datenträger und ein farbiges Booklet, das mit ein paar Fotos und interessanten Randnotizen aufwarten kann. Bei dem Konzert vom 3. Februar 1996 in der Düsseldorfer Philippshalle befanden sich Runrig auf dem Zenit ihrer Karriere. Mit „Mara“ hatte man einen respektablen Charterfolg am Start und mit Donnie Munro einen charismatischen Frontmann auf dem Höhepunkt seines Schaffens. Kurz nach dieser Tour verabschiedete sich Munro allerdings in die schottische Politik, und wurde daher durch Bruce Guthro ersetzt – übrigens kein Schotte sondern Kanadier. Daher zeigt die zweite Aufzeichnung aus dem Kölner Palladium von 2001 die Band mit Guthro als neuen Frontmann. Den Fans bietet sich hier also die Chance, zwei selten ausgestrahlte Rockpalast-Produktionen zweier unterschiedlicher Phasen in der Karriere von Runrig in ihr heimisches Archiv zu holen. Während Munro viele Jahre lang die unverkennbare Stimme Runrigs war, konnte auch Guthro mit seiner etwas rockigeren und dem Folk näheren Stimme durchaus das Publikum schnell für sich gewinnen.

  • Band from Rockall F
    Fitzgerald: The Band from Rockall ‘HALFWAY’ ISLAND The Creative Expression of Identity Markers within The Band From Rockall project JON FITZGERALD Southern Cross University <[email protected]> Abstract This article explores island identity and identity markers through a case study of a musical and audio-visual project entitled The Band from Rockall (2012) by Scottish songwriters Calum and Rory Macdonald (co-founders of successful Celtic-Rock group Runrig in 1973). The Band From Rockall was inspired by the Macdonald brothers’ experiences growing up in the Hebrides during the late 1950s and early 1960s, when North American rock and roll began to impact strongly on local Gaelic culture. The tiny rocky outcrop of Rockall lies in the North Atlantic approximately 250 miles west of Scotland. Its location between the Hebrides and North America symbolises the meeting of musical cultures that lies at the core of the project. The article describes the genesis of The Band From Rockall and examines its creative outcomes: a CD, vinyl album and behind-the-scenes DVD. It focuses on ways in which various identity markers (involving language, lyrics, music, visual elements and technology) are embedded within the project texts. Keywords identity markers, Hebrides, Gaelic, Celtic music, rock and roll, Rockall Introduction The Band From Rockall is a musical and audio-visual project by Rory and Calum Macdonald (co-founders of Scottish ‘Celtic-rock’ band Runrig in 1973). The Band From Rockall was officially released in April 2012 and involved the production of a 12-track CD, 8-track vinyl album, and a ‘behind-the-scenes’ DVD.
