  • A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound*
    A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound* Michael J. Doucet Abstract: One aspect of urban culture is examined to evaluate Toronto's position within the urban hierarchy, namely, the production of songs and sounds about the city. Although much music has been performed and created in Toronto over the years, and many songs have been urritten about a variety of features of life in the city, the musical images of Toronto remain largely unknown beyond its borders—even to many of the city's own residents. If Toronto is a "world-class city," the evidence for such a claim would have to be found on other dimensions than the one explored here. No one ever wrote / A single note / About Toronto. — Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster (19%) I find that lately, I'm missing old Toronto, Where bass is strong and drums are full of fire. — from the Lenny Breau song "New York City" (1987) No nation can exist by the balance sheet alone. Stories, song, dance, music, art and the rest are the lifeblood of a country, the cultural images defining a people just as surely as their geography and the gross national product. — Robert Lewis, editor of Maclean's (19%) Interestingly, though, we don't seem to have an immediately identifiable style. The last time anyone spoke about a 'Toronto Sound' [former Mayor] Alan Lamport was booting hippies out of Yorkville. Unlike a Nashville or Manchester, there isn't any one thing that makes you say 'That's Toronto' -- Bob Mackowycz, writer and broadcaster (1991) Toronto itself doesn't have a distinctive civic culture.

  • Gerald Arthur Pratley, OC (1923-2011)
    Gerald Arthur Pratley, OC (1923-2011) By The Editor Spring 2011 Issue of KINEMA It is with great sadness that we announce the passing away of Gerald Pratley on 14 March 2011, the Associate Editor and co-founder of Kinema. Gerald was born and educated in London, England. He came to Canada in 1946 to work for the National Film Board but soon found himself instead in Toronto working for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as a scriptwriter. In 1948, he became the CBC’s first film critic and commentator. During this time healso became the first post-war chairman of the Toronto Film Society. He served as a jury member of various festival competitions, including the first Canadian Film Awards in 1949. In 1968, Gerald became the founder- director of the Ontario Film Institute (OFI), a position he held for over two decades. The OFI became a model for the influential Cinematheque Ontario (now the TIFF Cinematheque in Toronto). From 1970to 1975 Gerald was the director of the Stratford International Film Festival in Ontario, which later provided inspiration to the Toronto International Film Festival. Gerald Pratley was made a member of the Order of Canada in 1984 and an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2003. In 1998, he was one of the first recipients of the Toronto Film Critics Association’s Clyde Gilmour Award. He received a special Genie Award in 2002, in recognition of his decades of service to Canadian cinema. A gifted storyteller and prolific writer, his major works include The Cinema of John Frankenheimer, The Cinema of Otto Preminger, The Cinema of David Lean, The Cinema of John Huston and Torn Sprockets, the authoritative history of the Canadian cinema.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Carol J. Oja Lucille Yehan Mok Glenn Gould, Oscar Peterson, and New World Virtuosities Abstract This dissertation centers on virtuosity as a source of creative genesis, boundary-pushing, and musical debate. Focusing on the careers and works of pianists Oscar Peterson (1925-2007) and Glenn Gould (1932-1982), I examine the role of the virtuoso in twentieth-century music- making, and his encounter with Canadian national identity. Gould and Peterson were contemporaries, and despite their differences - Gould was a white classical musician from Toronto, and Peterson, an African Canadian jazz artist from Montréal - their career paths share points of connection. Using archival material from the Glenn Gould fonds and the Oscar Peterson fonds at Library and Archives Canada, I analyze the work of both figures as sources of musical creativity through musical performance and composition. The first part of this dissertation demonstrates how Gould’s and Peterson’s respective performances sparked furor through their contestation of musical boundaries.
