The Ina Boyle Society is always delighted to hear of Ina's music being heard across the globe. We were particularly thrilled about a performance earlier this month in Canada by Musicologist and Performer Dr. Orla Shannon.
Dr. Shannon, a guest speaker at a colloquium talk at the School of Music, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, performed Ina's songs, introducing them to new audiences.

Invited by Dr. Laurel Parsons, a pioneer in publishing analysis of music by women composers, Orla's talk, 'Ina Boyle (1889–1967): A Journey of (Re)Discovery through Art Song,' also included a performance of Ina's Three Medieval Latin Lyrics with a fantastic pianist, Fergus Kwan.

As Ina's compositions continue to be performed worldwide, the Ina Boyle Society remains committed to sharing her legacy with future generations and thanks Dr. Orla Shannon for her continued support of Ina and her work, and for showcasing Ina’s music across the world in Canada.
