Where it came from
Released in 1967, this recording was part of a broader cultural initiative by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to document and promote domestic orchestral music during Canada's centennial year. The album features the CBC Winnipeg Orchestra under the direction of conductor Eric Wild, a pivotal figure in Canadian broadcasting who spent decades championing light classical and folk-inspired orchestral arrangements through various radio and television programs.
The album reflects a mid-century approach to regional representation, aiming to capture a 'Canadian sound' that bridged the gap between formal classical music and popular appeal. The production, handled by Capitol Records, served as a showcase for the technical capabilities and the specific repertoire of the Winnipeg ensemble during a period when the CBC was heavily investing in national programming to celebrate the country's identity.
