Paul Helmer shows that émigrés were at the centre of the new musical milieu and uses the lively testimony of those involved to weave together the larger story of post-war Canadian music performance, production, and education. By introducing the sounds and techniques of their homelands, émigré artists were able to overcome the dominating British presence in post-secondary music education - vastly expanding the role music played in universities - while pioneering the performance and production of opera in Canada. From British Columbia to Newfoundland, they served as educators, teachers, and administrators as well as outstanding performers, conductors, composers, music historians, radio and television producers, and benefactors. 410 0$aArts insights ;$v6. 606 $aImmigrants$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMusic$zCanada$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMusicians$zCanada$vBiography 615 0$aImmigrants$xHistory 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMusicians 676 $a780.971/0904 700 $aHelmer$b Paul$f1938-$01808796 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966983103321 996 $aGrowing with Canada$94359258 997 $aUNINA
