Thursday's concert in the

and Janet Nelson of Nelson,
and Steve Baal of Castlegar.

All have performed as solo
acts or in duos before de-
ciding to combine their tal-
ents. The band plays a range
of material from Irish rebel
songs through Scottish bal-
lads to North American blue-
grass tunes.

A versatility of instrumen-
tation is evident during their
performance with members
frequently changing from

playing a banjo or dulcimer
to an or bohran
(Celtic war drum).

‘The group has been known
to show: up for an engage-
fent with as many as 12 in-

fs on hand. Fans of
Celtic music know that'a rich
blend of vocal harmonies is
the cornerstone of this style
of music and the Clan will not
disappoint the listener here.

From the' boisterous rebel
song Roddy MeCorley to the
lilting sea shanty Leave Her
Johnny, the delicate interac
tion of voicés give a true
depth and beauty to the
music.

DOUKHOBOR
PAGEANT
TOP NOTCH

By MIKE HOGAN
In the Grand Forks Gazette

Iwas privileged _to_attend avery
performance —- The Story of the Doukhobors.

The historical pageant is one half of a festival that
was performed in Yorkton, Sask. Juty 18 and 19 and will
be at the Brilliant Cultural Centre in Castlegar, July 25
and 26.

The other half of the festival will include a variety
show performed on the evening before the historical
pageant.

The performances centre around the unveiling of two
bronze, life-size statues of the Doukhobor benefactor, Lev
Nikolaevitch (Leo) Tolstoy

As with many non-Doukhobors in the valley, I am
familiar with bits and pieces of the story of how these
people came to settle in Canada and the Sunshine Valley,
but the pageant was a real eye-opener

Backed by the sweet harmonies of the USCC.
Doukhobor Heritage Choir, a cast made up largely of
Boundary residents played out the story of the
Doukhobors.

Starting with their persecution in Tsarist Russia in
1895 when they refused to serve in the military forces,
proceeding through their arrival in Canada and their
years with Peter “The Lordly” Verigin, and leading up to
today with the story of how the present-day honorary

special

chairman, J.J. Verigin, came to Canada and eventually
assumed the leadership of the USCC, the pageant fits all
the pieces together.

It was a show anyone living in the Boundary should
have seen. Unfortunately, although the USCC Centre
was filled to capacity with a crowd of almost 650 people,
only about 60 of us were non-Doukhobors.

I hope the success of this pageant inspires some
similar extravaganza by the USCC in the future. And I
hope more non-Doukh then take ge of the
opportunity to attend the performance.

I don’t mean to make it sound like I attended the
equivalent of the Stratford on Avon Shakespearean
theatre; there were definitely flaws in the production.
The finale was a little confusing, and the odd performer
looked a little uncomfortable, but the overall impression
was fantastic

I was overwhelmed by what their unique commit
ment to community was able to achieve.

I saw people J go to the beach with, talk to on the
street, buy insurance from and so on. In other words,
people like you and me, and because of their commitment
to the Doukhobor community, they were putting on a
performance the like of which I have never seen any
other community achieve

The performance of The Story of the Doukhobors
was an example of what people can achieve when they
have a strong sense of community which supercedes the
petty bickering that often mires projects of all scopes.

Anne Verigin said it in her poem I Am a Doukhobor,
the choir sang it poignantly and flawlessly and our
community of Doukhobors demonstrated a part of what

can be achieved when a group of people live their lives

out of the position:

“T'll reach out to my brother, I'll give him my hand,
“This is room for us all in this bountiful land . . .”

Strike didn’t hurt

VANCOUVER (CP) — The
Conference Board of Canada
says B.C.’s one-day general
strike on June 1 appears to
have had little impact on
plans for future investment
in the province.

Canadians who plan to
invest in B.C. haven't chan-
ged their minds because of
the 24-hour labor stoppage,
said Gilles Rheaume, the
board's director of forecast-
ing and analysis.

The board will stick with
its projections for the prov-
ince, which call for moderate
economic growth over the
next two years and a con:
