MILLENNIAL P ROJECT
New Music For Young Musicians
The BC Centre is most grateful for the BC2000 Millennium Arts and Heritage Grant and matching
funding from The Canada Council for the Arts funds which enabled the BC Centre to complete the
“New Music for Young Musicians” project.
36 BC composers were commissioned to write music to fill the perceived gaps in the repertoire
and produced 55 works for beginning and intermediate students. They worked closely with teachers to ensure the works would be well-suited to the capabilities of children and young people.
Many wonderful gems were created.
Under the voluntary editorship of K e i t h H a m e l , all scores have been computerized and the
BC2000 Millennium series has a professional look.
The BC Centre has sponsored a number of workshops bringing together students and composers
to promote understanding, appreciation and excellent performance of Canadian music for young
people. New Music for Young Musicians workshops have taken place at Capilano College, Douglas
College, Langley Community Music School, Victoria Conservatory of Music, at locations in the
Okanagan and various schools in Vancouver, Surrey and Coquitlam.
The BC2000 Millennial Series of New Music For Young Musicians has been catalogued and the
scores may be loaned from any branch of the CMC. They may be purchased from the B.C. Region.
The BC Centre believes this may be the most important and successful project it has undertaken
in its 24-year history.
The Canadian Music Centre is your one-stop library and resource centre for Canadian contemporary music. Many Canadian composers write music for children and young people and the Centre
is a great place to borrow scores, listen to recordings and learn more about these composers and
their music. The CMC is the largest and leading music information centre in the world and it contains some amazing music by composers in BC and across Canada.
The BC Millennium Series is supported by millennial grants from British Columbia
2000 Arts and Heritage and the Canada Council for the Arts

VSO PULLS
T OGETHER
The Vancouver Symphony
announced an agreement that
will assist the organization in
projecting a balanced budget
for the 2001-2002 season.
In a plan developed jointly by
management, musicians and
the Board of Directors, all parties voted to accept a revision
to the fourth and final year of
the current collective agreement between the Vancouver
Symphony Society and the
Vancouver Musicians Association. The major component of
the agreement is a 9% reduction in the annual wage of the
orchestra members. Music
Director Maestro Bramwell
Tovey and President & General Manager, Jeff Alexander,
simultaneously volunteered a
wage reduction in their personal contracts. Furthering
the effort to reduce expenses,
the VSO's administrative staff
salaries have been frozen at
2000-2001 levels.
Douglas Sparkes, chairman of
the
Vancouver
Symphony
Orchestra Musicians Association said, “With an overwhelming majority vote, my
colleagues and I voluntarily
offered to open our collective
agreement, and donate 9% of
our salaries plus pension back
to the society, in order to help
put forth a balanced budget
VSO PULLS TOGETHER
this year. We have worked
tirelessly and consistently in a
spirit of friendship and cooperation with the board and

it that way. It is this collegial

apart, and makes it one of
Canada's leading arts organizations.”

Sergio
Barroso
is one of
three artists named
as winners
of
the
Canada Council for the Arts'
Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Awards for 2000. The
annual
awards
recognize
three outstanding Canadian
artists who have received Canada Council grants in the
fields of music or visual arts.
Winners are selected on the
basis of artistic merit: each
winner receives a $4,000
award in addition to the
amount of the grant.
Sergio Barroso was born in
Havana, Cuba. He studied
piano, organ, conducting and
composition from 1950 to
1966 at the Havana National
Conservatory and did his
post-graduate studies in composition from 1966 to 1968 at
the Prague Superior Academy
of Music (AMU). Later he studied computer music at the
Centre for Computer Research
in Music and Acoustics, Stanford University, California. He
currently lives in Surrey, British Columbia.
Although he has extensively
worked since 1969 in all electroacoustic music fields, his
output also includes orchestral, chamber, choral, stage,

film and incidental scores. His
music, described as having a
dramatic
character
with
emphasis in rhythm and
color, has received awards at
several competitions including the 1999 Arts International

Composition
Award
(New
York), the 1995 and 1980

others.
Strongly influenced by the
musical heritage of his native
country, Barroso's works have
been extensively performed
in the Americas, Europe and
Asia, including the National

Centre,
Metropolitan
Opera, San Francisco Opera,
