Concordia's own Bernard Lagace, inter­ nationally-renowned organist, is a prime example. Lagace is also driven by passion. For nine years he has taught the organ and the harpsichord in Concordia's Music Department. He is highly regarded the world over as an interpreter of the works of J.S. Bach, and has been described as "the unquestioned doyen of the Baroque wing of Quebec organ playing." Yesterday, Lagace participated in a workshop and demonstration featuring Bach's "Die Clavierbi.ing." The work­ shop was hosted by the Montreal Centre of the Royal Canadian College of Organ- . ists, chaired by Frederick Francis of Con­ cordia's Council for International Co­ operation.

  • The Public Dimension of Broadcasting: Learning from the Canadian Experience
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 294 535 IR 013 080 AUTHOR Raboy, Marc TITLE The Public Dimension of Broadcasting: Learning from the Canadian Experience. PUB DATE Jul 86 NOTE 47p.; Paper presented at the International Television Studies Conference (London, England, July 10-12, 1986). PUB TYPE Reports - Descriptive (141) -- Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Broadcast Industry; Communications; Community Role; Cultural Influences; Foreign Countries; Government Role; History; *Mass Media; Nationalism; *Political Attitudes; Programing (Broadcast); *Public Service; Television Research IDENTIFIERS *Canada; *Private Sector ABSTRACT The political context surrounding Canadian broadcasting dramatically changed following the election of a conservative government in 1984, and Canada's current broadcasting debate is marked by national and special interest concerns. While an important social aspect of the system is its profoundly undemocratic nature, the constituent elements of a democratic public medium exist. In dealing with the democratization of communications, it is first necessary to clarify the place of communications in democratic public life, then recognize the public character of the media. The Canadian broadcasting experience has contributed its share to obscuring the emancipatory potential of broadcasting, but it also contains the seeds of its own antithesis, and the struggles around it provide many instructive elements of an alternative approach to broadcasting based on a reconstituted public dimension. This public dimension can be fully realized only if a number of critical areas are transformed. From a critical analysis of the Canadian experience and the alternative practices and proposals that have marked it, there emerge some elements of a more coherent, responsive, direct system of public broadcasting.

Department of History McGill University, Montreal July 1989 (c) André Michel Couture J Abbrevjated Title A Social History of Televisionl Radio-Canada Rnd Quebee 1952-1960 ( ABSTRACT An examination of claims that te1evision "caused" Quebec' s Quiet Revolution leads to the formulation of a method to study the social history of television. The relationship between television and society is found in the dynamics of the social institution of te1evision. Radio- Canada' s role in 1950s Quebec was as a tribune and a forum for the new petite bourgeoisie. The dynamics of the production of the programme Les Idées en Marche, a colloborative effort of Radio-Canada and Institut Canadien d'Education des Adultes (ICEA), reveals how it was a tribune. Radio-Canada's role as a forum is shown through the professionalization of te1evision p.coduction dernonstrated by the 1958 te1evision news and the 1959 Radio-Canada producers' strike. It is shown that te1evision in 1950s was used by Quebec's new elite for its own ends and that those in political power came to rea1ize the new medium's significance. The dynamics of this social institution of te1evision reflect a society soon to be born. 1 RESUME Une ana lyse de l' hypothèse suivant laquelle la télévision est la "cause" de la Révolution Tranquille nous mène à une méthode d'étude de l'histoire sociale de la télévision.

This dissertation offers a new analysis of Canadian English-language TV drama content’s failure to mature into a popular genre or robust economic sector since its introduction in the 1960s, and suggests ways that the Canadian English-language TV drama value chain might be strategically adjusted in response to global market disruption, by strengthening the development phase.

  • Fiddle Grooves
    Fiddle Grooves: Identity, Representation, and the Sound of Cape Breton Fiddle Music in Popular Culture by Jeffrey James Hennessy A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Jeffrey James Hennessy 2008 Abstract Fiddle Grooves: Identity, Representation, and the Sound of Cape Breton Fiddle Music in Popular Culture Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Jeffrey James Hennessy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto This dissertation investigates Cape Breton fiddle music from a popular culture perspective. It introduces a conception of musical groove comprising two interrelated components: a social component wherein individual musical actors retain their own identities and relationships with the music while also uniting collectively in their response to the music, and a sonic component consisting of an acoustical repeating of a rhythmic idea that forms the metrical underpinning for a piece of groove music. Each of these two components is informed and mediated by the other. Cape Breton fiddle music is considered here as a form of groove-based popular music, similar to other groove musics. The two dimensions of the groove are analyzed in turn, revealing aspects of social identity, political and commercial representation, and processes of intercultural syncretism that have resulted in the evolution of the music within the pop culture mainstream. The dissertation is divided into two large sections. The first section concerns the social component of the Cape Breton fiddle groove, considering aspects of cultural representation, social identity, globalization and perceived external threats, and intersections with popular culture. The second section examines the sound of Cape Breton fiddle music as a form of groove-based music by first proposing a general model ii for the analysis of groove-based musics, and then applying the model to the Cape Breton fiddle context.
