A new web site based in Canada is attempting to provide a much-needed resource for the classical music world: “a fully searchable Web site of home grown contemporary music. The slick, bilingual site, www.musiccentre.ca, includes comprehensive biographies and sound samples of about 580 composers, living and dead… Holding the country’s largest collection of Canadian classical works, the Toronto-based centre, around since 1959, has re-organized its library resources so the general public can access the materials. Previously the centre’s 15,000 scores were only available through five regional lending libraries.”
