  • Building Ontario's Music Economies
    Building Ontario’s Music Economies Working Paper Series: Ontario in the Creative Age Prepared by: Brian Hracs February 2009 REF. 2009-WPONT-008 Building Ontario’s Music Economies, February 2009, B Hracs Building Ontario’s Music Economies By Brian J. Hracs, University of Toronto Contact: [email protected] February 2009 Introduction The goal of this report is to demonstrate the opportunity cities in Ontario have to attract, incubate and retain musical talent at a time when the structural and spatial landscape of the global music industry is in flux. This report argues that changes to the music industry, in the wake of new digital technologies, and a declining market for recorded music is leveling the playing field for cities and allowing new locations to compete with the established centers of music production. New technologies and fragmentation have provided individual musicians greater creative and geographic freedom and weakened the power of Los Angeles and New York. Therefore, forward thinking cities within Ontario that already have clusters of music-related activity such as Toronto, Peterborough and Picton, have a window of opportunity. By acting strategically, these city-regions could not only become the new destinations for musical talent, but also grow their creative sectors and broader bases of talent as well. This report also expands on why musicians contribute to the cultural dynamism of places and serve as essential building blocks of economic and social prosperity. For example, when musicians settle in cities they generate vibrant music scenes signifying that the city in question offers attractive amenities. The presence of musicians, therefore, attracts other strands of talent, professionals, scientists and other ‘creatives’, growing the pool of talent and drawing in new businesses, jobs, innovators and consequently, sources of wealth.
