CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: a QUESTION of NATIONALISM a Thesis Submitted in Partial Satis
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: A QUESTION OF NATIONALISM A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music by Ronald Frederick Erin August, 1983 J:lhe Thesis of Ronald Frederick Erin is approved: California StD. te Universi tJr, Northridge ii PREFACE This thesis represents a survey of Canadian music since 1940 within the conceptual framework of 'nationalism'. By this selec- tive approach, it does not represent a conclusive view of Canadian music nor does this paper wish to ascribe national priorities more importance than is due. However, Canada has a unique relationship to the question of nationalism. All the arts, including music, have shared in the convolutions of national identity. The rela- tionship between music and nationalism takes on great significance in a country that has claimed cultural independence only in the last 40 years. Therefore, witnessed by Canadian critical res- ponse, the question of national identity in music has become an important factor. \ In utilizing a national focus, I have attempted to give a progressive, accumulative direction to the six chapters covered in this discussion. At the same time, I have attempted to make each chapter self-contained, in order to increase the paper's effective- ness as a reference tool. If the reader wishes to refer back to information on the CBC's CRI-SM record label or the Canadian League of Composers, this informati6n will be found in Chapter IV. Simi- larly, work employing Indian texts will be found in Chapter V. Therefore, a certain amount of redundancy is unavoidable when interconnecting various components. -
A Clear Apparance
A Clear Apparence 1 People in the UK whose music I like at the moment - (a personal view) by Tim Parkinson I like this quote from Feldman which I found in Michael Nyman's Experimental Music: Cage and Beyond; Anybody who was around in the early fifties with the painters saw that these men had started to explore their own sensibilities, their own plastic language...with that complete independence from other art, that complete inner security to work with what was unknown to them. To me, this characterises the music I'm experiencing by various composers I know working in Britain at the moment. Independence of mind. Independence from schools or academies. And certainly an inner security to be individual, a confidence to pursue one's own interests, follow one's own nose. I donʼt like categories. Iʼm not happy to call this music anything. Any category breaks down under closer scrutiny. Post-Cage? Experimental? Post-experimental? Applies more to some than others. Ultimately I prefer to leave that to someone else. No name seems all-encompassing and satisfying. So Iʼm going to describe the work of six composers in Britain at the moment whose music I like. To me itʼs just that: music that I like. And why I like it is a question for self-analysis, rather than joining the stylistic or aesthetic dots. And only six because itʼs impossible to be comprehensive. How can I be? Thereʼs so much good music out there, and of course there are always things I donʼt know. So this is a personal view. -

Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: an Overview and Performance Guide
NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide A PROJECT DOCUMENT SUBMITTED TO THE BIENEN SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS Program of Saxophone Performance By Thomas Michael Snydacker EVANSTON, ILLINOIS JUNE 2019 2 ABSTRACT Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide Thomas Snydacker The saxophone has long been an instrument at the forefront of new music. Since its invention, supporters of the saxophone have tirelessly pushed to create a repertoire, which has resulted today in an impressive body of work for the yet relatively new instrument. The saxophone has found itself on the cutting edge of new concert music for practically its entire existence, with composers attracted both to its vast array of tonal colors and technical capabilities, as well as the surplus of performers eager to adopt new repertoire. Since the 1970s, one of the most eminent and consequential styles of contemporary music composition has been spectralism. The saxophone, predictably, has benefited tremendously, with repertoire from Gérard Grisey and other founders of the spectral movement, as well as their students and successors. Spectral music has continued to evolve and to influence many compositions into the early stages of the twenty-first century, and the saxophone, ever riding the crest of the wave of new music, has continued to expand its body of repertoire thanks in part to the influence of the spectralists. The current study is a guide for modern saxophonists and pedagogues interested in acquainting themselves with the saxophone music of the spectralists. -

Photo by Peeter Poldre. 2 SOUNDSTREAMS.CA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Lawrence Cherney Artistic Director STIMULATING CULTURAL CONVERSATIONS In the lead up to our milestone 35th season, the 2016-17 season reaffirmed our commitment to creating a platform for uniquely Canadian cultural conversations. With a renewed focus on stimulating and provoking these conversations through carefully curated themes, we aimed to bring even greater depth, impact and relevancy to our work. This exploration of themes spurred us to incorporate dramatic enhancements in our productions, whose goal is to create immersive experiences for our audiences that will appeal to a wide range of ages and musical backgrounds. Ben Dietschi Executive Director One such example was Magic Flutes, which flowed seamlessly through a century of great flute repertoire from the lyricism of Debussy to a contemporary Canadian work inspired by Inuit shamanism. The season also saw the return of the legendary Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, in a concert that explored significant Canadian and Estonian repertoire including world premieres by Omar Daniel and Riho Esko Maimets. As Canada approached its national sesquicentennial, Soundstreams’ programs like Music of the Rainbow Nation: A Tribute to Nelson Mandela’s Dream sought to bring global perspectives to issues of inclusivity, as always through the lens of intercultural collaboration. At the same time, productions Daniel Weinzweig like R. -
The Influence of Multiculturalism on Canadian Contemporary Art Music
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Social and Behavioral Sciences 2 (2010) 7403–7406 Selected Papers of Beijing Forum 2004 The Influence of Multiculturalism on Canadian Contemporary Art Music Stephen Chatman Professor, School of Music, University of British Columbia Given the Beijing Forum 2004 theme of “Harmony and Prosperity of the Civilizations,” I have chosen a subject on art, which I believe illustrates a significant aspect of international harmony, communication, and synthesis of civilizations. As an introduction, a brief background on Canadian history and culture may be useful: Having gained confederation in 1867, Canada is a very young nation. As a country in the “new world”, Canada has always been a land of both immigrants and aboriginal “first nations” people. Historically, Canadian culture often has been defined as a Canadian “mosaic” (as opposed to the American “melting pot” concept), that is, a constantly evolving fabric of distinctly defined traditions, language, and art, often preserved or sanctioned by Canadian society and government. This Canadian “mosaic” is changing and has been shaped especially by assimilation, immigration, geography, demographics, and other cultural and political issues. Originally settled by primarily British, French and American immigrants, Canada’s languages (officially English and French), culture, moral values, and political system reflect its early heritage. Throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, new waves of immigration continued—Irish, German, Scandinavian, Russian, Ukrainian, Eastern and Southern European, Chinese, Japanese, and East Indian people immigrated in ever increasing numbers. A high level of immigration, recently much more racially and geographically diverse, has continued into the 21st century, resulting in a truly multicultural and racially tolerant land. -

An Annotated Bibliography of Canadian Oboe Concertos
An Annotated Bibliography of Canadian Oboe Concertos Document Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Oboe in the Performance Studies Division of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music January 11, 2016 by Elizabeth E. Eccleston M02515809 B.M., Wilfrid Laurier University, 2004 M.M., University of Cincinnati, 2007 D.M.A. Candidacy: April 5, 2012 256 Major Street Toronto, Ontario M5S 2L6 Canada [email protected] ____________________________ Dr. Mark Ostoich, Advisor ____________________________ Dr. Glenn Price, Reader ____________________________ Professor Lee Fiser, Reader Copyright by Elizabeth E. Eccleston 2016 i Abstract: Post-World War II in Canada was a time during which major organizations were born to foster the need for a sense of Canadian cultural identity. The Canada Council for the Arts, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and the Canadian Music Centre led the initiative for commissioning, producing, and disseminating this Canadian musical legacy. Yet despite the wealth of repertoire created since then, the contemporary music of Canada is largely unknown both within and outside its borders. This annotated bibliography serves as a concise summary and evaluative resource into the breadth of concertos and solo works written for oboe, oboe d’amore, and English horn, accompanied by an ensemble. The document examines selected pieces of significance from the mid-twentieth century to present day. Entries discuss style and difficulty using the modified rating system developed by oboist Dr. Sarah J. Hamilton. In addition, details of duration, instrumentation, premiere/performance history, including dedications, commissions, program notes, reviews, publisher information and recordings are included wherever possible. -
