Best Comprehensive Survey of Canadian Music Available.......1999-01-19

This anthology of three Centuries(!) of Canadian music was assembled by a former producer from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation who now works for Naxos Canada. This producer is also active in the Canadian music world, so he knows whereof he speaks (or selects, as in this case). Liscensing the best performances available from major Canadian and International labels, this is the best collection of, and introudction to, the entire Canadian music scene that I have ever come across. The booklet is informative and is as enjoyable a read as is the 2 CD set is to listen. I doubt there will ever be anything quite like it again. If only NAXOS would now start recording Canadian music on top of the Canadian artists they already record, than they will truly have one of the finest and most comprehensive classical catalogues in the world. As for now, don't pass this one up.

Customer Reviews:

An excellent selection of music by a prime Canadian composer.......1999-01-17

This disc was issued to celebrate the composers' 80th birthday (in 1993) as a joint venture by the Canadian Music Centre and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The concert was organized by one of the participants, pianist Mary Kenedi, who accompanies violinist Martin Beaver in Weinzweig's Violin Sonata. John Weinzweig is one of the most important and influential senior Canadian composers of this Century. Practically all other major Canadian composers have studied with John Weinzweig and have found their own voice because of him. This CD offers an excellent and accessable taste of the genius of this composer and of the high quality of Canadian music in general.
