My fellow officers, directors, and I would like to welcome you to the 2019 Conductors Guild National Conference. Any event in New York City is bound to be an exciting experience, and this year’s conference promises to be one you won’t forget. We began our conference with visits to the Metropolitan Opera for a rehearsal and backstage tour, and then we were off to the Juilliard School to see some of their outstanding manuscripts and rare music collection! Our session presenters will share helpful information, insightful and inspiring thoughts, and memories of one of the 20th Century’s greatest composers and conductors, Pierre Boulez. And, what would a New York event be without a little Broadway, and Ballet? An event such as this requires dedication and work from a committed planning committee.

In the Autumn months there are still concerts and lectures to attend, but it must be admitted there is a sense of ‘winding down’. However, the joint meeting with the Delius Society in October is something to be welcomed, and we hope it may be the beginning of an association with other musical societies.

Toronto, Ontario M3C 1J7 Telephone: (416) 441-1111 1-800-619-7301 Fax: 416-441-2825 Web: http://www.presbyterian.ca Catalogued by: Bob Anger, August 2002 1 Biographical Sketch of The Rev. Dr. Alexander MacMillan The Rev. Dr. Alexander MacMillan was a minister of The Presbyterian Church in Canada and later The United Church of Canada, and was both nationally and internationally recognized and respected as a hymnologist and expert in the field of hymnody and church praise. He was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on October 19, 1864, to Thomas MacMillan and his wife Margaret MacMillan (nee Henderson). He had an older step- brother, Thomas (the son of Thomas Sr. through a previous marriage), an older sister, Margaret, and a younger brother, John. He studied at the University of Edinburgh from 1880 to 1884 before attending the United Presbyterian Theological College, "Divinity Hall", in Edinburgh. Through the Student Missionary Society he worked in Canada during the summer and autumn of 1886, visiting and preaching as student minister to the community in Fort Frances in northern Ontario. Shortly after his ordination in 1887, Alexander returned to Canada and accepted a call to the pastoral charge of Auburn and Smith's Hill in Ontario, where he served until September 1891. In 1890, he married Wilhelmina ("Winnie") Ross, with whom he had four children: Ernest (born Aug. 18, 1893), Dorothy (born Aug. 22, 1898), Jean (born Feb. 15, 1901), and Winifred (born Jan.

    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.
