OTTAWA PUBLIC HEALTH
Highlights – Special statement
– September 28
****************************
Be COVIDWise to keep our schools and businesses open
Lastly, we continue to see a rising number of individuals
testing positive and outbreaks in school settings are following. We are
also seeing more exposures to COVID-19 in some businesses. No one wants to
close schools and no one wants to see businesses close – to do so
would have a detrimental impact on our community both economically and
otherwise.
At the end of the day, it’s simple: we must continue to be COVIDWise to keep COVID-19 out of schools and businesses.
I know people miss their friends and loved ones. I know you want to see each other, and everyone has been working hard at coming up with new, safer ways to be social.
I’m asking everyone to keep doing the right thing. If we continue to work hard now, we have a better chance at seeing the benefits of our efforts sooner.
No action is too small. Every protective measure we can take matters to reduce the overall rate of infection in our community.

Southminster United Church
Steinway Grand Piano Campaign
****************************
Dear Patrons of Music at Southminster,
I am delighted to report that, thanks to a large donation that came in earlier
this week, the Steinway Fundraising Campaign is now nearly complete.
The current tally of contributions received by the
church totals just over $120,000, leaving us less
than $10,000 short of the total needed of $130,000!
Because we are so close, Southminster has agreed to proceed with the purchase
(the church will finance the balance while donations continue), and so I'm
simply over-the-moon to report that the piano will be
delivered to the church early next week, well in time for Charles Richard-Hamelin's first piano recital for donors, happening on Saturday October 3rd!
That said, if you haven't donated yet, please consider being among the folks
who will get us over the finish line; only 100
more donations of $100 will put the campaign to rest for good!
Secondly, I'm pleased to announce that the church's Wednesday
freewill-offering-funded noon-hour concert series - Doors Open for Music at
Southminster (DOMS) - will resume next Wednesday, September 30, with a
presentation by a local string quartet.
The new Steinway will feature prominently in the weeks to follow with concerts
involving a number of fine pianists from Ottawa and beyond performing concerts
of classical, chamber music, jazz and more. I will send full details of
the series out by this weekend.
One major unknown is whether we will open doors to live audiences (due
obviously to COVID19 restrictions) or live-stream only. Please stay tuned for
details as we are holding off this decision a few more days.
That's it for now, thanks for reading, and thanks for all your support making
my Steinway dream a reality.
Roland Graham, Musical Director, Southminster United Church

COBALT Prize
****************************
A collaboration between the Toronto Blues Society and Paul Reddick, the intention behind the COBALT Prize Contemporary Blues Composition Award is to promote blues music through exploration of its form. The Cobalt Prize Contemporary Blues Composition Award was created and originally funded by Toronto-based Reddick, whose goal was to change the way audiences perceive and appreciate blues music. The Cobalt Prize receives hundreds of submissions from artists coast-to-coast, proving that deviating from standard blues riffs and clichés is a welcomed addition to the growing Canadian blues music scene.
Open to Canadian artists, the winning composition is judged on its ability to creatively utilize blues traditions within the broad contemporary musical landscape. Particular attention is paid to aspects of instrumentation, melodic invention, song structure, lyrics, and production possibilities. The successful song refreshes and enriches blues as an art form. Priority is given to songs that have been crafted specifically for the Cobalt Prize, however previously released material may be submitted.
The submissions are now open with applications being accepted until Friday, October 30 by 6 pm Eastern. The intention behind the COBALT Prize is to promote blues music through exploration of its form. The winner will be announced during one of the upcoming Maple Blues Awards live stream sessions in the month of February and a cash prize of $500 will be awarded. Previous winners of the Cobalt Prize Contemporary Blues Composition Award are Digging Roots (2015), Conor Gains (2016), Ann Vriend (2017 & 2019), Joe Nolan (2018), and Bad Luck Woman & Her Misfortunes (2020).
SUBMISSIONS
All submissions must include:
-
One (1) attached
MP3 file of the track to be considered (NOTE: Only one track per composer will
be considered)
-
Track information
(including track title, lyrics sheet, and composers’ name)
-
Contact information
(including first and last name, e-mail address, current city and province of residence)
- A $10 admin fee payable via PayPal (link will be provided after submission)
Please send your complete application
to cobaltprize@gmail.com for consideration by Friday,
October 30 at 6pm EST.

THE RIDEAU
****************************
BLUES
ON THE RIDEAU
“COVID FIGHTER” FALL 2020 SERIES
The Fall Series is a 3-Engagement – 2 Shows per Engagement – Series, running once a month in September, October & November. Depending on how these shows go we will consider continuing with a Winter (January, February, March) and Spring (April, May, June) Series. The Series will feature Duos & Trios playing great “sit-and-listen” Blues.
Full COVID safety protocol will be TOP PRIORITY at all times. 50-person capacity (half the normal) with 6’ distancing between tables, 12’ distancing between the artists and the nearest audience member. All staff will be wearing masks. Everyone entering The Cove will be required to wear masks and when circulating in the room (but they can be removed at the tables). Hand sanitizer will be everywhere, and all will be encouraged to use it regularly throughout the night, not just on entering and leaving the building. Use of bathrooms will be restricted to one person at a time.
Plated meals will be brought to the tables by Cove staff instead of a buffet. All surfaces will be sanitized regularly. We believe that if everyone follows these safety measures, we can all safely enjoy a night out of great LIVE music!
Of course, everything depends on the COVID-19 situation. If it worsens and indoor gatherings are banned again then the Series will be postponed. On the other hand, if things improve and full capacity gatherings with no social distancing required are allowed again, we may return to full band shows. However, given the current situation, we don’t see than happening anytime soon.
Performances
will include a delicious full course meal, the show and Door Prizes with
proceeds going to support different local charities – all for only $70 pp (plus
HST).
Note:
To date the BOTR @ The Cove Series has raised over $74K for local Westport
charities.
ADVANCE
RESERVATIONS are required for all Shows and we encourage everyone to book ahead
to avoid disappointment – especially with the reduced seating capacity.
CALL
THE COVE at 613-273-3636
Well-priced accommodation is available at The Cove and nearby B&Bs for those who want to stay overnight.
ADDED
BONUS!
For
all those who would love to attend but can’t, the shows will be broadcast LIVE
on the
BOTR
YouTube CHANNEL
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwljdQBzal87XBJLg9sW-CQ

DONATIONS (call it a Virtual Cover Charge) for these Shows will be GRATEFULLY APPRECIATED and split evenly between the artists, The Cove and Choose The Blues Productions. We encourage you to visit the channel and SUBSCRIBE in advance for quick access.

ONTARIO
FESTIVAL OF SMALL HALLS
****************************
This isn’t a typical year and this isn’t a typical Festival of Small Halls. When the ‘Team Behind Bluesfest’ first launched the Ontario Festival of Small Halls, in August of 2014, they started with small steps – staging music events in historically important venues in a few small towns and villages near Ottawa, in Ontario, and featuring some notable Canadian talent. In recent years, the Festival of Small Halls has seen continued success and gained in popularity, due to the exceptional programming and boundless community enthusiasm that has become standard for the event.
For
2020, despite the pandemic, the Festival of Small Halls organizers are
determined to maintain their track record for excellence with a stellar lineup
of live acts that will wow audiences in four Ontario communities. And, although
health guidelines will restrict those audiences to a maximum of fifty people,
music lovers who are fortunate enough to attend will witness memorable
performances by some of the best talent Canada has to offer.

Ticket prices: www.bytowne.ca/ticket-prices-0
Since we re-opened, we've been telling customers that they must wear a non-medical mask inside the cinema, except when safely seated, watching the movie. We were given that advice by a staffer at a City Councillor's office, purportedly relayed from Ottawa Public Health. We have been informed that, well, we had been misinformed. The correct policy is that masks should be worn at all times in the cinema, except while eating or drinking.
Keep
your Membership handy after you show it to the usher with your ticket.

BLUES FESTIVALS
– NEXT YEAR?
****************************
THE
18th ANNUAL BLUES FESTIVAL GUIDE MAGAZINE
https://bluesfestivalguide.com/emag/2020/
Blues
music is America’s original roots music. It is still being picked on the
front porches of tar-paper shacks, but just as frequently, it is fired up loud
and proud in front of a barroom (or festival) crowd.
Blues reflects hardship, trouble and strife, but also perseverance and strength
of character – to know the blues is to be in touch with your true spirit and
soul. The Blues Festival Guide is committed to the process of
presenting blues to a wider audience, and therefore offers a weekly, electronic
newsletter: Blues Festival
E-Guide (free subscription) and the popular annual
national print (and digital) magazine which comes out each spring.
“With so many festivals postponing or canceling, it was uncertain if we would publish
it this year, but the readers kept asking,” says publisher, Kaati Gaffney.
“We received countless personal calls and emails from advertisers and readers
alike and have been bombarded with magazine ad and subscription orders. It seems
the more we all sat at home during this pandemic, the more we thought about
music and its ability to generate well-being and connection. Even though
festival offerings are slimmer this year, there are still quite a few events planned
for the summer and fall.”
Blues legend Bobby Rush calls the magazine: The roadmap to
everything blues. Indeed, the articles offer something for everyone, all blues
related, of course. This year’s engaging editorial from aficionados in the
blues community includes articles from Grammy winner, Victor Wainwright,
Mitch Woods, Reverend Billy C. Wirtz and Roger Stolle among others.

Unsung
and On The Side
With Carolyn Fe
It’s all about the Blues, Jazz and its derivatives from around the globe and just around the corner. Songs rarely heard, from the very first recordings all the way to indie artists who consciously push the envelope to the next generation sounds of the genre; some older releases will be spun - just because the album in old, doesn't mean it's forgotten, thus the "On The Side" part of the show's title.
Carolyn wrapped up Unsung and On The Side
after 200 shows. Previous episodes available at carolyn-fe.com/radio Featured
Artists include: Little Axe, Jon Spear, Red's Blues, Cris Jacobs, Elam McKnight,
The Soul Rebels, D.L. Duncan, Sybil Gage, Z Star, CheeseFinger Brown, Sami
