St. Anne's Concert Band performs original piece inspired by the Big Storm of 1913
CONTINUED FROM > PAGE 10
Wexford Shanty, a "sea
shanty; is written in the style
of a lively folk tune or jig.
Deeply rooted in seafaring
lore, this is a "work song",
commonly sung by sailors
while performing shipboard
labour. This also was
frequently the style of music
they chose for entertainment
to relieve the stresses of their
long days. The SS Wexford,
built in Great Britain 1883,
foundered 8.6 miles NNE of
Grand Bend, Ontario. The
wreck was discovered in
August 25, 2000 sitting intact
and upright in 75 feet of water
on the bottom of Lake Huron.
November Witch depicts the
strong November Gales that
frequently blow across the
Great Lakes in autumn. These
"witches" have caused
numerous shipwrecks over
the years, including the "Big
Storm" of 1913. This "Fresh-
water Fury" contained
blizzards with hurricane -force
winds which devastated the
Great Lakes from November 7
through November 10, over-
turning ships on four of the
five Great Lakes, particularly
Lake Huron, killing more than
250, destroying 19 ships, and
stranding 19 others, including
the S.S. Wexford. The "witch"
theme appears in different
forms throughout the piece, in
the opening as an ominous
prologue to the Hymn, and
more obviously there's a sub-
tle transition from the "work-
ing song" to the storm
section.
The St. Anne's Band will for-
mally debut "Songs of the
Karegnondi" at their Spring
Concert on Friday, May 8th
2015. More details about the
premiere of the piece will
follow.

CONTEMPORARY RANCHER
Rustic exterior details lend this
contemporary rancher the air of a
charming country cottage.
Solid logs support the gabled roof over
the front porch, and are repeated on both
sides of the double garage. Shingles fill
the three gables, one of which boasts an
attractive arched window.
Even the panelled garage door, with
its narrow arched windows, exudes
character.
Inside, this three-bedroom rancher
boasts a practical floor plan with a
bonus: a 398 -square -foot games room
over the garage.
The covered front entry opens to a
compact foyer that leads directly into
the multi-purpose great room. This open
living space has a stylish gas fireplace
in one corner, as well as space for either
a free-standing or built-in entertainment
unit. French doors open onto a covered
porch, ideal for year round grilling.
The adjacent kitchen includes everything
the contemporary cook might desire,
including a raised eating bar, a full
complement of modern appliances and
a convenient pantry.
While simple meals for one or two
people are likely to be served at the
eating bar, the dining area next to the
kitchen has plenty of room for more
formal dinners with family and friends.
Natural light will stream into the dining
area through windows on three sides.
From the kitchen, a door leads to the
double garage, passing a storage room,
and the laundry on the way.
A staircase from the foyer climbs to
the games room over the garage. This
space could serve as a home office, for
storage or for playing games such as
billiards or table tennis.
The bedroom wing is located to the
right of the main entry. Two smaller
bedrooms face the street, while the
master bedroom suite overlooks the
back garden.
The master suite has a walk-in closet,
a niche for a television and an elegant
corner en -suite bathroom with a soaker
tub. Another three-piece bathroom
serves the secondary bedrooms.
This home measures 50 feet wide by
59 feet, 6 inches deep, for a total living
area of 1,610 square feet.
