CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: a QUESTION of NATIONALISM a Thesis Submitted in Partial Satis
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. -

Orchestral Music of the Canadian Centennial
! ! ORCHESTRAL MUSIC OF THE! CANADIAN CENTENNIAL ! ! ! ! ! ! Isaac !Page ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF! MUSIC May 2020 ! Committee: Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor Per Broman ! !ii ! ABSTRACT ! Emily Freeman Brown, Advisor ! In 1967, Canada celebrated its centennial anniversary of confederation. Celebrations were marked with many significant events in the decade leading up to the centennial, notably the adoption of a new Canadian flag, the construction of many cultural landmarks across the country, and Expo 67 in Montreal. In addition to these major cultural celebrations, there was a noticeable push to create and promote Canadian art. Approximately 130 compositions were written for the centennial year, with many commissions coming from Centennial Commission grants as well as the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC). Of those works, 51 were orchestral compositions that were intended to be performed by orchestras across the country. These works form an important collection that is ripe for study into compositional trends of the time. I believe that composers, writing for such a significant cultural event in Canada, attempted, consciously or not, to codify a Canadian musical identity. I will look into whether shared compositional traits could be considered signifiers of a general Canadian style by looking at previous scholarship on Canadian identity and how it can relate to music. Specific works will be analyzed by Applebaum, Eckhardt-Gramatté, Freedman, Glick, Hétu, Morel, Surdin, and Weinzweig. !iii ! ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ! Thank you to my parents, Carolyn Ricketts and Steven Page. I am very aware that I would likely not be where I am, and able to write a document like this, if both of my parents had not been musicians and had not continued to encourage me through my education. -
