Hey there, time traveller!

Celebrated Brandon University music professor T. Patrick Carrabré has been nominated for a prestigious 2013 Western Canadian Music Award.
Carrabré’s latest album, “War of Angels,” is in the running for Classical Recording of the Year.
“This is a great honour,” said Carrabré, chair of music history and theory at BU’s School of Music. “The nomination recognizes the hard work of a lot of people who had a hand in this album.”
The recording is a treat for anyone looking for music that pushes boundaries, including performances by traditional Inuit throat singers and the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra.
Carrabré has worked closely with the WSO for nearly 20 years, including six seasons as composer-in-residence and co-curator of the orchestra’s successful New Music Festival.
He is a previous Western Canadian Music Award winner and Juno nominee, and his work has received international acclaim.
In addition to teaching, Carrabré has served terms as dean of music and vice-president (academic and research) at BU.
Funding for “War of Angels” came, in part, through the Brandon University Research Committee and the Brandon Arts Council.
The award winners will be announced Oct. 6 in Calgary.
“Pat’s nomination represents yet another distinguished achievement in his career,” music dean Michael Kim said. “His continued engagement and dedication to his craft is most exemplary, and I am thrilled for him.”
