A NOTE FROM THE COMPOSER Ever since Home Alone appeared, it has held a unique place in the affections of a very broad public. Director Chris Columbus brought a uniquely fresh and innocent approach to this delightful story, and the film has deservedly become a perennial at holiday time. I took great pleasure in composing the score for the film, and I am especially delighted that the magnificent Toronto Symphony Orchestra has agreed to perform the music in a live presentation of the movie. I know I speak for everyone connected with the making of the film in saying that we are greatly honoured by this event…and I hope that the audience at this performance will experience the renewal of joy that the film brings with it, each and every year.

  • NOËL Early Canadian Christmas Music
    NOËL Early Canadian Christmas Music This collection of hymns, anthems, carols, songs, and organ works for Christmas is a glimpse into the musical tastes of Canadians from the earliest missions of New France to the early 20th century. The earliest Christmas music associated with Canada came from the 17th-century missions in Quebec and Ontario. Jean de Brébeuf was a Jesuit missionary associated with Ste Marie, a Huron (or Wendat) village on the shore of Georgian Bay. It is believed that he wrote the Wendat words to create the first, and one of the most haunting Canadian Christmas carols Jesous Ahatonhia (1648), also known as The Huron Carol. In Quebec City music played an important role for the French pioneers as well, particularly around Christmas. In plain-chant style, Sacrae familiae (ca 1684) is structured in a call-and-response form. The Ursuline convent also gave music a prominent role. Among the many unsigned manuscripts is the Christmas motet Magnus Dominus (ca. 1700). After the great upheavals of the French-English wars, and the American War of Independence of 1776, Canada welcomed immigrant composers from Europe. Stephen Humbert (1767-1849), a Loyalist from New England, settled in New Brunswick where he continued the tradition of teaching the "proper" singing of hymn-tunes and anthems and compiled and published a collection, Union Harmony, which includes the Christmas anthem Herald Angels (ca. 1816). In French Canada, Christmas continued to offer compositional inspiration both in and outside the church. Christmas songs rather than official hymns of the church often expressed the people's devotion around Christmas, including L'Enfant Dieu (1861) by Antoine Dessane and Napoleon Crepault's La Nuit de Noel (1887).

    Spurrell Studio Choir Wins Elmer Iseler Prize At Kathaumixw Festival by Sean Bickerton Canadian Music Centre Jul 18, 2018 Source: musiccentrebc.ca [August 16, 2018] The Canadian Music Centre in BC was pleased to sponsor the Elmer Iseler Prize for Outstanding Performance of a Canadian Work at this year’s XVIIIth Annual International Festival Choral Kathaumixw July 3 – 7, 2018, in Powell River, BC. The Award was presented at the Gala Awards Concert on Friday, July 6th to the Spurrell Studio Choir from Oakville, ON, conducted by Natalie Spurrell, for their performance of Stephen Hatfield‘s Nukapianguaq. The Elmer Isler Prize is named for one of the leading choral conductors in Canada. He led the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir, and founded the Festival Singers of Canada and the renowned Elmer Iseler Singers, and led his choirs at many national and international festivals and events. He was made an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1975 “for his many services in the field of music in Canada, particularly for his development of the world-renowned Toronto Mendelssohn Choir.” He was awarded the Order of Ontario in 1995, and in 1997 was named a Fellow of the Royal Conservatory of Music and an Adjunct Professor of Choral Music at the University of Toronto, where the Elmer Iseler singers became the official choir-in-residence. A champion of Canadian music, the Elmer Iseler Prize is one of the most prestigious awards presented every two years at the Kathaumixw Choral Festival. The sculpture was created by local wildlife artist and Tug Ghum Gallery owner Debra Bevaart.
