Sound of Remembrance

The Sound of Remembrance concert is a commemorative event held at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, Canada. This annual concert is part of the museum’s efforts to honor and remember the sacrifices of Canadian soldiers and veterans, especially around the time of Remembrance Day in November. The event typically features live musical performances, including classical music, military band performances, and choral pieces, often inspired by themes of remembrance, peace, and the experiences of war.

Spartan Wellness is proud to sponsor the Sound of Remembrance because this event aligns with our mission to support veterans’ well-being.

This year’s Sound of Remembrance concert at the Canadian War Museum on November 9, 2024, will feature performances by country music stars George Canyon, Jason McCoy and Graham Trude, also known as “The Singing Soldier.”

George Canyon is a Canadian country music legend, celebrated not only for his chart-topping hits but also for his unwavering dedication to honoring and supporting veterans. Born in Nova Scotia, Canyon’s deep respect for the military community was instilled early on, with many of his family members having served in the Canadian Armed Forces. This personal connection has fueled his long-standing passion for veterans’ causes.

As a prominent advocate for veteran welfare, George Canyon has continuously used his platform to raise awareness and funds for those who have served their country. His “Sound of Remembrance” concert series holds a special place in his heart, as it offers a powerful and emotional tribute to veterans and fallen soldiers. Through music, Canyon seeks to honor their sacrifices, share their stories, and help ensure they are never forgotten.

Jason McCoy, a Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame inductee, will headline the event with a special acoustic set, while Graham Trude will bring his unique blend of military experience and country music to the stage.
