Anthology of Canadian Music/Anthologie de la musique canadienne

Anthology of Canadian Music/Anthologie de la musique canadienne(ACM). Collection of recorded music created by RCI devoted to prominent Canadian composers of serious music and to their most significant works. Initiated in 1978, the collection has brought together in a single boxed set works by a composer recorded over the years and accompanied by an interview conducted in English or French according to the composer's wish (sound documentaries are devoted to deceased composers). Program notes on the music are accompanied by a list of works and a translation in French or English of the interview or documentary. The last three sets, devoted to a specific theme, do not include interviews. The collection was most favorably received by radio stations in Canada and abroad as well as by record libraries and universities, in particular those having Canadian studies in their academic programs. These RCI recorded programs were unfortunately halted in 1991 due to budget cuts (see also CBC recordings). A list of composers whose works have been released on the Anthology of Canadian Music label is appended.
