Director’s Message
Dear Friends
25
James Campbell
th
True to his nature, James
Campbell did not mention in
his greetings that we are also
celebrating his 25th season
as Artistic Director. He is going
to celebrate by doing what he
does best, playing the clarinet.
Look through the programmes
for Mozart’s Clarinet Trio,
Clarinet Quintet and Gran Partita
for 13 Winds, Mendelssohn’s
Concert Piece and John
William’s Air & Simple Gifts
(from the Barack Obama
inauguration). Hear Jim with
the Elora Festival Singers
in Missa Pax, a new work
for clarinet and choir by
Timothy Corlis. He’ll play in
the style of Benny Goodman,
both classical and jazz.
You are invited to give Jim a
congratulatory gift through
the Note-by-Note Campaign
(page 20).

July 17 – August 9, 2009
Anniversary
Festival of the Sound
Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts
Season
Parry Sound, Ontario
Come to the Festival of the Sound for a marvellous
birthday party, a three week celebration of our
30th season, the anniversaries of some of history’s
greatest composers – Handel, Haydn and Mendelssohn
– and the centenary of one rather infludential clarinet
player, Benny Goodman.
We have invited as many of our old friends as we could
to the party. Some first performed here as young artists
and are now regulars on the world stage. New friends
this year include emerging stars such as the Stockey
Young Artist Frederieke Saeijs and the Spanish pianist
Leo Erice and internationally renowned ensembles like
the Leipzig String Quartet and the Canadian Brass.
As you look through the brochure you will notice many
of your favourite works: Bach’s Goldberg Variations,
Handel’s Messiah, the Mendelssohn and Schubert
Octets. Interestingly enough, when I asked the musicians
which works they would most enjoy performing, many
chose the same ones you love to hear.
A good way to celebrate, a good way to party.
Join us on the shores of Georgian Bay for great concerts
in the spectacular Charles W. Stockey Centre for the
Performing Arts.

Andrew Till with A.Y. Jackson
Andrew Till was almost
predestined to become a
landscape painter. His family
cottage in Go Home Bay is set
among the actual rocks and
pines featured in so many
Group of Seven classics. Across
the water stands the renowned
McCallum cottage in which
Tom Thompson, Arthur Lismer
and J.E.H. MacDonald painted
the mural panels now on display
at the National Gallery.
As a student at Upper Canada
College, his gifts caught the
eye of A.Y. Jackson who became
a friend and frequent summer
painting and sketching partner.
After graduating from Trinity
College and Ontario College of
Art, he travelled widely in Europe
and Mexico and was part of
the turbulent New York art scene
of the sixties, but never lost
touch with his artistic or personal
roots in Canada.
The Festival of the Sound chose
the image “Daybreak” to honour
Parry Sound artist Andrew Till on
the 10th anniversary of his death.

Music from the Inside Out
In 2001, Artistic Director James Campbell introduced
Music from the Inside Out, a series of lectures, discussions
and open rehearsals, as an opportunity to “eat, sleep, breath
and live music for a few days, just as musicians do for most
of their lives.” This has become an integral part of the Festival
experience for many. This year, Jeffrey Stokes invites you to join
him In the Mendelssohns’ Parlour on the 200th anniversary of
the composer’s birth and Keith Horner takes you down memory
lane and looks to the future with 30 Minutes for 30 Years,
a series of pre-concert interviews.
Painted Sound – July 30, August 6
In Painted Sound, the Festival celebrates the relationship
between visual arts and music. On Thursday, July 30,
Anagnoson & Kinton perform the piano four-hands version of
the full ballet score for Stravinsky’s Petrouchka. Alan Stein has
painted a series of watercolours depicting key scenes in the

Ballets Russes – The Film – August 6
Unearthing a treasure trove of archival footage, filmmakers
Dan Geller and Dayna Goldfine have fashioned a dazzling
ode to the revolutionary twentieth-century dance troupe
known as the Ballets Russes. Infused with wonderful anecdotal
interviews from many of the company’s glamorous stars,
Ballets Russes treats us to a rare glimpse of the remarkable
merger of Russian, American, European, and Latin American
dancers, choreographers, composers, and designers that
transformed the face of ballet for generations to come.
Island Queen Cruises
Enjoy Georgian Bay sunsets as the cruise ship Island Queen
takes a wandering three-hour route through the wild and rugged
beauty of the 30,000 Islands, a region recently designated by
the United Nations as the Georgian Bay Littoral Biosphere
Reserve. These cruises have been a highlight of every Festival
season since our inception, blending wonderful music with
breathtaking scenery. Performances are on the lower deck of
the Island Queen and can be heard throughout the ship.
Winds on the Water – August 7
Experience all the surprises of a morning on Georgian Bay
aboard the M.V. Chippewa with the Festival Winds. Order tickets
early as these cruises always sell out.

Canada Day Cruise – July 1
Frederieke Saeijs
Celebrate Canada’s birthday with the Shores of Newfoundland,
a “down east” band that specializes in the music of the
Maritimes and Newfoundland. The evening ends on a quiet
note as the Island Queen returns to the harbour and drifts for
a fireworks display. A Canada Day tradition since 1991.
August 1 – 3, 2009
Jazz Canada has been a Civic
Holiday weekend tradition
at the Festival of the Sound
since 2002. The Saturday
evening concert features the
star-studded Dave Young
Octet. From swing to bop to
modern jazz, you will hear
music by legendary musicians
such as Duke Ellington and
original works by Rick Wilkins,
Dave Young and Phil Dwyer.
Plus the world premiere
of Young Suite, a threemovement work composed
for the legendary Dave Young
by Allan Gilliland. On Sunday
afternoon be a part of
the excitement when great
improvisers, David Braid,
David Young, Mark Fewer and
Zapp, meet. That evening,
meet an exciting young band,
the Toronto All-Star Big Band
reviving the spirit, style and
sound of 1930’s and 40’s –
the golden age of the big
bands. As a special gift to the
audience, the legendary Peter
Appleyard makes a guest
appearance. Wrap up the
Jazz Canada Weekend with a
sunset musical cruise on the
Island Queen as vocalist Carol
McCartney offers songs with
a summer theme including
The Summer Knows, The
Summer Wind and Georgia
in Summertime.

Benny Goodman at 100 – July 26
A double celebration: Benny Goodman was born 100 years
ago and Gene DiNovi recorded an album with Benny of music
from The Sound of Music 50 years ago. Hear arrangements
from that album, as well as Benny’s greatest hits such as
Memories of You and Don’t be that Way. The Charles W.
Stockey Festival Performance Hall is transformed into a club,
with guests seated at tables. Dessert and coffee are included
in the ticket price. Also hear the classical music that Benny
Goodman loved, at noon on July 23.
Inn at Manitou Gala – July 28
The Inn at Manitou, one of Canada’s most elegant resorts, is
nestled on the shores of Lake Manitouwabing. This intimate
evening includes a full-course, haute cuisine dinner with wines.
Guests then adjourn to the Tea Room for an exclusive
opportunity to hear baritone Russell Braun and pianist Carolyn
Maule in recital. Patrons receive an income tax credit receipt
for a portion of the ticket price.
Primadonna Goes into the Woods – August 4
Where else would our favourite Primadonna, Mary Lou Fallis,
go when she decides to “rough it” but to the five star Inn at
Manitou. Sheila Wise has graciously invited her in for the night
as a respite from the rigours of the campgrounds and outdoor
facilities on the rest of her tour. She and Peter Tiefenbach
will set up camp in the elegant Tea Room and share their
outrageous “camping” experiences with our audience who will
enjoy the comforts of the Inn with her. After a show including
hilarious songs such as Mosquito Merengue and a “cooking
in the wild” skit where martinis serve as first aid, all are invited
to join her for coffee and dessert.

Frederieke Saeijs of The Netherlands started to play the
violin at age seven and graduated from the Royal
Conservatory in The Hague with Bachelor and Master
degrees. She continued her violin study with Mauricio
Fuks at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in
Bloomington, Indiana where she received both the
Performer Diploma and the Artist Diploma. In 2005 she
won the First Grand Prix at the Marguerite Long-Jacques
Thibaud competition in Paris. Since then she has performed
throughout the world with prestigious orchestras under
conductors including Matthias Bamert, Jonathan Darlington
and Jaap van Zweden. Frederieke Saeijs is currently
Artist in Residence in the Dr. Anton Philipszaal and Nieuwe
Kerk in her home town The Hague. She plays a violin
by Petrus Guarneri (1725, Venice), ‘Ex- Reine Elisabeth’,
kindly lent to her by the Dutch National Music Instrument
Foundation.
Charles Stockey
Charles and Lois Stockey
Charles Stockey loved
young artists and often
expressed his desire for
them to perform in the
wonderful acoustics of the
concert hall that he helped
to build. The Festival of
the Sound chooses the RBC
Stockey Young Artists each
year to honour this wish.
RBC Stockey Young
Artists are generously
supported by:
Jan Lisiecki
Jan Lisiecki was born in Calgary in 1995 and has been
studying piano since the age of five with Colleen Athparia
and Glen Montgomery at the Mount Royal College
Conservatory. At 14, he is already making a name for
himself on Canadian and international stages. He had his
orchestral debut with the Calgary Civic Symphony at 9,
as the youngest winner of the Calgary Concerto
Competition and has since performed more than 30 times
with orchestras in Canada and abroad. He has played at
Carnegie Hall and has shared the stage with Yo-Yo Ma,
Pinchas Zukerman, James Ehnes, and Emanuel Ax.
Last summer, he performed the Chopin F minor Concerto
with Sinfonia Varsovia and will return to Warsaw in August
to perform the E minor Concerto. Jan performs frequently
for various charity organizations and was appointed
a National Youth Representative by UNICEF Canada.

An Elegant Evening
Celebrating our
First 30 Years
Festival of the Sound 2009 – Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts
Join us
for a very special gala dinner on
Monday, July 20 at the Charles W. Stockey Centre for the
Performing Arts. Food has always played a very important
role in the Festival of the Sound’s celebrations, both for
raising funds and for building relationships. Celebrate
the 30th anniversary season and James Campbell’s
25th anniversary as Artistic Director with an evening of
music, laughter, wine, good friends, good conversation
and fine food. Keith Horner hosts the evening and Festival
musicians offer an intimate concert as their anniversary
gift. Come and raise a glass or two to the Festival’s
first 30 seasons and help us to raise funds for many more
years of wonderful music to come. Your support and
encouragement, shown by your presence with us, are
particularly welcome in these challenging economic times.
A tax receipt for $75 will be issued for each ticket sold.
Wine with dinner is included in the price of the ticket.
The dress code is “Parry Sound Elegance,” ranging all the
way from black tie to smart casual. Seating is reserved
at tables for eight, so order early to avoid disappointment.

Note-by-Note
Membership
Let The Music Play On
The Festival of the Sound delivers
Canada’s finest summer experiences –
intimate performances by outstanding
chamber musicians in the spectacular
Charles W. Stockey Centre for the
Performing Arts on the shores of
Georgian Bay. To present world calibre
concerts at affordable ticket prices,
the Festival Board raises two dollars
for every dollar generated at the Box
Office. Since we keep administrative
costs as low as possible, your
membership donation has a direct
impact on artistic programming and
free educational opportunities for
children and adults. A recent survey
of 226 Canadian performing arts
organizations showed that 8% of the
total revenue was raised through
individual donations. At the Festival
of the Sound, our individual donors
contributed 18% of our revenue in
2007. Thanks to the support of this
wonderful membership base, we are
now one of Canada’s most successful
musical organizations.
All contributions are gratefully
received and are eligible for a tax
credit receipt. With a donation of $25
or more, you will become a member of
the Festival of the Sound and receive
a pre-Christmas mailing with special
offers on passes and merchandise,
our newsletter Soundings outlining
advance information about the
upcoming season, early mailing of
the season brochure, and listing in
the souvenir programme. The
Festival Board offers contributors of
$250 or more tickets to their concert
of choice (excluding Opening Night,
cruises and special events).
Your investment in the future
of the Festival of the Sound is very
much appreciated.
In order that we may present
exceptional concerts for at least
30 more seasons, we are conducting
the “Note-by-Note” fundraising
campaign. James Campbell has
planned for many years to bring
together enough of his colleagues
to perform the Mozart Serenade for
13 Winds, Gran Partita. But each
year, when it came time to trim the
budget, he decided that we really
couldn’t afford the extra players. This
year, when the topic came up again,
Executive Director Margaret Boyd
would not let him cut it out and
promised that we would find a way to
do it. And that’s where you come in!
In addition to asking you to renew
your support of the Festival with
a donation to our annual campaign,
we are inviting you to buy a symbolic
musical note for $25.00 or a full bar
of the Gran Partita for $100. Now you
may ask if there is a special price for
bars where the oboes and clarinets
rest for a line or two. The answer is
no, since we still have to pay them
to count! More seriously, the
performance of the Gran Partita on
August 6 will be one not to be
missed. This is the work that led
Mozart’s rival Salieri to muse in the
movie Amadeus, “It seemed to me
that I was hearing the voice of God.”
The campaign will continue through
the summer season with the names
of all contributors to the Note-by-Note
campaign included in a memento of
the evening that will be given to
James Campbell with our thanks.

Impressions of
the Massasauga
Provincial Park
Charles and Lois Stockey were
supporters of and workers for
the Festival of the Sound in its
formative years before they moved
to Victoria, BC. In 2002, what began
with a casual question about what
was happening now in Parry Sound
led to a donation of $1.7 million to
name the Charles W. Stockey Centre
for the Performing Arts. Now the
Festival has a home, an intimate
performance hall that has come to
be ranked as one of the finest in
the world for chamber music.
During the 25th Anniversary Season
in 2004, the Festival Board
established the Charles and Lois
Stockey Endowment Fund to honour
our benefactors. To ensure the
long-term health of the organization,
all donations directed to this fund
are invested, with the interest used
to support annual operations.
Charles Stockey died in
September of 2004 after a lengthy
battle with cancer. Lois lives in
Victoria but maintains a keen interest
in news from Parry Sound and looks
forward to her annual visit for the
summer concert series.
Information about the Charles and
Lois Stockey Endowment Fund is
available at all Festival of the Sound
concerts. Speak to one of the
Directors wearing a “gold badge” or
call the Festival Office. Contributions
of any size are welcome and are
eligible for a charitable tax receipt.

The Massasauga Provincial Park
stretches along the coast of
Georgian Bay from Parry Sound to
the Moon River. It includes
spectacular windswept islands as
well as inland forests and lakes and
is a sanctuary for many protected
species. Once a year a group of
Ontario artists tours the park in
visual study. The composition of
the group changes annually, as
do their impressions of the park.
The artwork in this exhibition
represents the participating artists’
unique perspective of this
exceptional Canadian landscape.
All are invited to the show
opening on Saturday, July 18 at
4:00 P.M. The show continues
through to August 9.

Music Scores
Thank You
In the Festival’s innovative education
program Music Scores, children in
Grades 4 to 6 in thirteen area schools
enjoy six concert experiences, some
of which have included the True
North Brass, a woodwind quintet, a
jazz ensemble, the Toronto Symphony
Youth Orchestra and most recently
a quartet of singers. Prior to each
of these concerts, the musicians visit
every school, getting to know the
students in an informal setting,
demonstrating their instruments and
preparing them for the concert.
Then all 700 children come to the
Stockey Centre by bus or on foot to
listen to the musicians, now their
friends, in a formal concert setting.
No opening night audience can
match the excitement that precedes
each of these concerts.
Music Scores is offered without
charge to the children, their families
or the schools. Thanks to:
