Snapshots in Song

Tuesday Night Talk (and Tunes!)

Tonight's Tuesday Night Talk has been cancelled due to current weather conditions. We will reschedule today's talk at a later date. We apologize for any inconvenience.      

Tonight’s talk brings together history through song and discussion to illuminate the events, movements, or moments in the remarkable history of Nova Scotia. That history is a complex story of bravery, nation building, displacement, and destruction that has made this province’s culture so eventful, rich, and, in some ways, problematic.

Jay Pilzer holds a Ph.D. in History from Duke University. He taught History for decades and has been a guitar player and songwriter since he was fifteen. He is the author of two books dealing with popular culture and music and is now working on a third.
