    FA Annual 2013 – 2014 C T OR Repor t We acknowledge the financial support of the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage Canada Music Fund and of Canada's Private Radio Broadcasters. 2 Message From the Chair We are extremely FACTOR 2013–2014 FACTOR proud of the role we play in supporting Canadian musical artists Message From the Chair 3 After serving on FACTOR’s Board of Directors for the past six years, it is with pride that I write my last message as Chair. It is remarkable to think how much FACTOR has changed since I first became involved with the organization. Over this time, FACTOR has made a number of important improvements and transforma- tional changes in the way it administers funding for the Canadian independent music industry. These include efforts to build staff expertise to ensure consistent, fair and transparent funding; to develop a res- ponsible investment strategy for surplus funding that ensures long-term 2013–2014 FACTOR funding stability; the modernization of our application processes and client services with investments in digital infrastructure; and, most importantly, a re-design of our programs to better reflect how the industry is monetizing recorded music and to ensure investments are made in areas where they will have the greatest potential to be com- mercially meaningful. FACTOR’s ability to successfully navigate the dramatic changes shaping the Canadian independent music industry is due in large part to the stable funding it receives from the public-private partnership shared between Canada’s private radio broadcasters and the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage.

  • Analysis of John Weinzweig's Private
    SUSPICIOUSLY SIGNIFICANT NONSENSE: A (QUEER) ANALYSIS OF JOHN WEINZWEIG’S PRIVATE COLLECTION THROUGH LIP-SYNCED PERFORMANCE ANTHONY LOMAX A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO OCTOBER 2018 © ANTHONY LOMAX, 2018 ii Abstract This thesis presents two different analyses of John Weinzweig’s Private Collection, a group of nine songs for soprano and piano that was completed in 1975. The first analysis is text- based and draws on the existing literature, my own reading of the score, and archival research. The second is a performance-based analysis focused on a lip-synced performance of Mary Lou Fallis and Monica Gaylord’s recording of the composition, which I personally directed. I also draw upon data collected from audience surveys and performer interviews in this analysis. Here I consider various layers of performativity in Private Collection and ground my work in performance studies and queer scholarship. I argue that lip-syncing is a queer methodology that can illuminate the fragmented and multiple meanings that emerge from recorded music. iii Dedication For Andrew, my husband and friend, the only person alive for whom I would sing “Man, I Feel Like a Woman” in a leopard-print jumpsuit. iv Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisory committee of Louise Wrazen, Sherry Johnson, and Magdalena Kazubowski-Houston, who gave me space to create a truly unusual thesis project; Stephanie Martin and Darcey Callison, members of my defense committee; Daniel Weinzweig, who gave me permission to use photographed portions of his father’s archived score in this thesis; Darren Yearsley at the CBC archives for sending me the recording of the radio broadcast in which Private Collection was premiered; John S.
