Commentary This is a housekeeping matter that the Administration and Finance Committee review and recommend approval by Council of the monthly accounts. In this regard I have attached the City’s January 2017 accounts payable for review by Committee. Financial Implications Expenses are processed by municipal staff within budget guidelines and brought before committee for ratification. Legal Implications The monthly approval of the accounts payable will ensure that all expenditures made by the City are technically legal. 2nd Floor · 877 Goldstream Avenue · Langford, BC Canada · V9B 2X8 T · 250-478-7882 F · 250-478-7864 Page 5 of 82 Recommendation That Administration and Finance Committee recommend to Council that: City of Langford disbursements from January 2017, be approved as outlined in the Accounts Payable Report dated February 1, 2017.

    Volume 24, Number 14 July 22, 196543 Toronto British American Oil Company's Musical Showcase, a half-hour weekly television quiz - and -music program, goes national August 1. Twenty-two Western -Canadian stations are being added to the 31 -strong eastern roster. Other switches, to more elaborate production and all -live prize displays instead of graph- ics, will follow. So will a change to a paid quiz panel. (B-A wants more money fed into customer prizes - less to the on -air panel participants). The oil company's April dealer letter is reported to credit Showcase with pulling close to a million mail entries and in- creasing the rate of B -A credit card applica- tions by 300 per cent since first airing March 28. In the photo (1. to r.) are: Phil Lauson, Foster Advertising (Montreal); Jack Neuss, retail programs director for B -A (and creator of Showcase); George LaFlêche, emcee and singing star; Denny Vaughn, musical director; Peter Lussier, director -producer, and Bob McNicol, Foster Advertising (Toronto). This is baseball? That's what CFCB Radio in Cornerbrook, Newfoundland, and the local CBC Radio employees seem to think. At least they recently played a three -inning grudge match in their outlandish outfits and called it softball - even agreed on a 2-2 tie score once the shenanigans were over. It was all in a good cause - for the local Royal Canadian Legion. Price of admission to the game was set at one forget-me-not (the flower of remem- brance) per customer. Evidently the Legion's `lower sales were helped considerably.

  • 2018 Conference Abstracts
    2018 CMS / ATMI / NACWPI NATIONAL CONFERENCES ABSTRACTS & PROGRAM NOTES Updated 8/15/18 Aark Duo, The Performance: Culture and Nature: A Triptych for Flute and Percussion This twenty-five-minute flute and percussion program comprises three works inspired by the natural and cultural surroundings of the composer. While stylistically divergent, Mathew Burtner, Toru Takemitsu, and Halim El-Dahb draw inspiration from their cultural relationship to nature in “Windgrains”, “Toward the Sea”, and “Big-Tooth Aspen.” “Windgrains” (2006) by Alaskan composer Matthew Burtner depicts the sound of wind across the Alaskan tundra, and “…explores a metaphysical system of interrelated bodies, environment and spirit.” This seven-minute piece uses the flutist’s breath and a variety of extended techniques, coupled with percussion instruments representing elements such as wood, ice, and stones. Takemitsu’s reverence for ma, or “the space between two parts” is exemplified in his 1981 composition “Toward the Sea”, for alto flute and vibraphone. This work embodies the Japanese-rooted concept of silences employed at the beginning and ends of movements while creating a soundscape of night in the first movement and the ocean in the third movement. The program concludes with “Big-Tooth Aspen” for flute and derabucca by Egyptian-American composer Halim El-Dahb. Premiered in 1995, the piece represents life, death, and resurrection respectively in each movement titled “Twigs”, “Droopy Flowers, and “Hairy Seeds in the Wind.” Adams, Daniel Clinic: Textural, gestural, and thematic contrast in Stephen Chatman’s “Quiet Exchange” for Clarinet and Two Suspended Cymbals This presentation is an analytical discussion of the Chatman work with a video recording of the presenter performing the percussion part along with clarinetist LaTriel White on November 2017 recital at Texas Southern University.

  • Examining the Canadian Opera Company's Role in Opera Education in Ontario Schools: 1950-1 990
    Examining the Canadian Opera Company's Role in Opera Education in Ontario Schools: 1950-1 990 by Donnalee Smith B. A., Wilfrid Laurier University,l975 B. Ed., University of Toronto,I 976 Early Childhood Music Ed. Certificate, Ryerson University, 1997 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard O Donnalee Smith, 2004 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced, in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. Supervisor: Dr. Betty Hanley Abstract As a music educator I discovered that many students shared my excitement about opera when it was part of their school program or on field trips to experience an opera. This discovery led me to wonder what opera education had been presented to teachers and students in the past and how effective these programs had been. This thesis examines the Canadian Opera Company's (COC) role in opera education in Ontario schools from 1950-1990. This historical study focuses on five major research questions to determine what happened in opera education for Ontario students over a 4-decade period. Data were collected in two ways. First, primary evidence was gathered from the Joan Baille Archives located in the Joey and Toby Tanenbaum Opera Centre in Toronto. Secondly, I interviewed four people who had been closely associated with the COC and were eye witnesses to some of the events over the 4 decades.

  • The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014
    The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 by Min-Jeong Koh A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Min-Jeong Koh 2014 The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 Min-Jeong Koh Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This paper examines the proliferation of string quartets in Canada between 1991 and 2014. The year 1991 is a pivotal one: it was the end of a Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada with the conclusion of the activities of the Orford, Vághy, and Purcell Quartets. It marked, also, the beginning of a New Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada. Similar to their predecessors, the quartets of this new era have different levels of international success, but one could call it a New Golden Age from the sheer number of professional ensembles active in Canada from 1991 onward. The thesis begins with biographies of leading ensembles of this period: the Alcan, Arthur Leblanc, Claudel-Canimex, St. Lawrence, Lafayette, Penderecki, Molinari, Bozzini, Borealis, Tokai, Silverbirch, Cecilia, Afiara, and the New Orford Quartets. The fourth chapter researches the opportunities available to string quartets in Canada, including the Banff International String Quartet Competition. To supplement the biographies and to gain additional insight on the available resources, eight quartet players participated in interviews. Findings emphasize the need to create more support for Canadian musicians, including both professional ensembles and also young aspiring quartet ensembles, to stay in Canada.
