For the music I like, it seems to be the Montreal - Toronto axis. There are smaller scenes hidden away in Kitchener, Moncton, and Banff. Simon-Fraser has some stuff going in Vancouver. Not a lot comes out of the Prairies or the Maritimes, though. There is a great avant-garde music composer and trumpet player from Saskatoon named Amy Horvey, but as soon as she made a name for her self, she relocated to Montreal. C'est la vie. Ever since Glenn Gould wrote a narrative piece about taking the train from Winnipeg to Churchill, the rule seems to be we ca let the majesty of Rural Canada inspire us as artists...but we mustn't live there. Of course, there are exceptions, my friend John Luther Adams, a truly great composer of modern music, chooses to live in Fairbanks year-round. He doesn't teach up there. He just digs it. It inspires him. Of course, Fairbanks is America, not Canada, but the same general principle applies.
