Patrick CARDY,
Composer and Teacher: 1953-2005
Open-minded, all-embracing Ottawa musician was known for bridging
gaps in an area of the arts that is often strongly divided. For
him, it was all about communicating with his audience
By Randy RAY,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Wednesday, May 4,
2005, Page S7
Ottawa -- During a career that saw him receive more than 40 commissions
from performers and institutions, including acclaimed Canadian
concert pianist Angela Hewitt and Ottawa's National Arts Centre
Orchestra, Patrick
CARDY rarely separated himself from those
who hired him to compose music.
"Patrick dispelled the stereotype of composers as introverted
and dour and who do their own thing. He was always enthusiastic
to work with us, and about the process of working with us," says
Peter DUSCHENES, artistic director for the Platypus Theatre in
Ottawa.
In 2001, Mr.
CARDY was commissioned by the National Arts Centre
Orchestra to co-write music for Rhythm in Your Rubbish, a Platypus
Theatre production that told the story of two tramps who discover
the beauty of music.
As was usually the case, Mr.
CARDY took on the project with great
enthusiasm, attending workshops and rehearsals, where he collaborated
with actors and the director to make the music and story work
well together. "He was a fantastic collaborator who was so willing
to jump into the process of creating," says Mr.
DUSCHENES.
Others to commission Mr.
CARDY include the Edmonton Symphony
Orchestra, the Ottawa International Chamber Music Festival, the
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Vancouver Orchestra, the Vancouver
Chamber Music Festival and Thirteen Strings. In addition to Ms.
HEWITT, he wrote for soprano Julie
NESRALLAH, flautists Robert
CRAM and Jean-Guy
BRAULT, and for the violin/viola duo of Jerry
and Janos CSABA, who premiered his Mimesis on the National Arts
Centre's Music for a Sunday Afternoon series in 1988.
Often, his support and interest in those who commissioned him
did not end once his music was put to paper: When Rhythm in Your
Rubbish toured Ontario, Mr.
CARDY attended performances in many
cities, including Kitchener, and Toronto, where the Toronto Symphony
performed his score. He would often have a beer with musicians
after a performance to ask how they enjoyed playing his music
and to determine if revisions were necessary. Anyone who is familiar
with his compositions says his music is characterized by colourful,
evocative sonorities, a strong sense of dramatic gesture, an
elegant lyricism and an accessible directness of expression --
traits that have captivated both listeners and performers.
Mr. CARDY's work ranged from pieces for children's theatre to
liturgical music. He was just as likely to be inspired by the
music of a Renaissance composer, as he was to experiment with
synthetic musical scales. A Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
Records disc of his work Virelai, for clarinet and string orchestra,
was nominated for a Juno award in the Best Classical Composition
category in 1992, and another Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
disc including his Éclat for Organ, was named Best Classical
Recording at the 1999 East Coast Music Awards.
Mr. CARDY, who was also a flutist and teacher, was in demand
as a guest lecturer and music adjudicator Canadawide, and often
visited area high schools to encourage students to consider music
as a career. In 1977, he became a professor in music composition
and theory at Carleton University's School for Studies in Art
and Culture, where he was known as an attentive and creative
teacher.
Mr. CARDY was president of the Canadian League of Composers from
1989 to 1993, and was on the Canadian League of Composers's executive
council for many years, during which he was "well spoken on issues
of concern to Canadian composers and very generous with his time
and advice," says Canadian League of Composers president John
BURGE of Toronto.
While president, he used his close proximity to the Canada Council's
Ottawa office to work on a number of items, including trying
to increase the amount of Canadian music performed by Canadian
orchestras, says Mr.
BURGE. He also oversaw the highly successful
40th-anniversary celebrations of the Canadian League of Composers
in Winnipeg in 1991.
"He cared deeply about our country and wanted us all to appreciate
the wealth of our musical heritage and to provide opportunities
for current and future composers," says Mr.
BURGE.
On March 11, the Ottawa Chamber Music Society performed a tribute
concert to Mr.
CARDY's work at a local church. The concert was
recorded by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to be broadcast
later across Canada. "It was a beautiful event," says the society's
artistic director, Julian
ARMOUR, noting that the society on
29 different occasions used the composer's work in its performances.
The March concert included pieces written for his two children.
It began with
CARDY's
Hope, a short, sweet piece for strings
dedicated to son Michael, and also included Quips and Cranks
dedicated to son Jonathan.
"He wrote music to be played and listened to," says Mr.
ARMOUR.
"He loved the reaction of audiences and that his music brought
out strong emotions."
With his open-minded approach, Mr.
CARDY, who was a devout Catholic,
was known to bridge gaps in an industry that is often strongly
divided. "These days there is an extremely wide spectrum of music
and few composers have respect for the whole spectrum, but Patrick
brought people together and he always fostered respect for what
others were doing.
"He was a great, positive and healthy force in the Canadian music
industry."
When he was not composing, Mr.
CARDY loved to play sports and
keep fit, says close friend Al
MacKEY, who had known Mr.
CARDY
and his wife, Janet, for 20 years.
"He was a passionate debater who liked to take opposing views
and provoke his Friends on just about any subject," says Mr.
MacKEY, who remembers his friend as an enthusiastic curler and
softball player, and a huge hockey fan who never missed his son
Jonathan's games and practices.
In 1996, Mr.
CARDY served as music adviser to the National Arts
Centre Orchestra for its new music festival, A Tonal Departure,
and more recently was a consultant on the National Arts Centre
New Music Program. Over the years, he wrote a handful of pieces
of chamber music for both the orchestra and its musicians and
was active in suggesting new music the orchestra should add to
its concert series.
"One of his roles was to serve as the voice of conscience for
the National Arts Centre Orchestra in our new music program,"
says Christopher
DEACON, the orchestra's managing director. "He
gave us guidance; there was ongoing dialogue and if he felt we
were not doing enough, he would nip at our heels."
Andrew CARDY was a patient collaborator, says Mr.
DEACON. "He
would not just say 'here is a proposal,' he would give me a very
elaborate range of options. They were always very thoughtful
options and he was very responsive to what we had to say."
Like the 18th-century composer Joseph Haydn, Mr.
CARDY signed
all his compositions with the Latin Deo gratias -- thanks be
to God.
Patrick CARDY was born August 22, 1953, in Toronto. He died of
a heart attack March 24 in Ottawa, after being treated for a
broken arm suffered while curling. He was 51. He is survived
by his wife, Janet, and two sons, Michael, 7, and Jonathan, 11.
On the night he died, the National Arts Centre Orchestra dedicated
its performance to him.

VANDUZER, The Honourable Mr. Justice John Elston
Nov. 8, 2005 If ever there lived a modern-day chevalier, that
man was John Elston
VANDUZER.
Born
October 14, 1927 in Winona,
south of Hamilton, John was raised with his brother Dick on the
family fruit farm but felt destined to be a city gentleman. After
completing his secondary education in Hamilton, John did his
B.A. at McMaster University (1950) before attending Osgoode Hall.
After articling with Fraser and Beatty, he entered into private
practice in Hamilton, but found his real calling when he was
appointed to the Family Court, in 1966. John's professional life
was a memorable succession of selfless initiatives: he co-founded
the Unified Family Court in 1976, was the first Canadian President
of the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts, set up
the Dawn Patrol Group Home to aid troubled youth, was an Elder
and Sunday School Teacher at St. Giles' United Church, served
on the Committee for Citizens of Distinction and
as President
of the Hamilton Community Concert. John was a tireless advocate
for families and a leading member of his community. In recognition
of this, he was awarded an Honourary Doctorate of Laws by McMaster
University in 2003.
Above all, John treasured his family. He was blessed with two
wonderful marriages: the first to Betty
ANDERSON, whom he met
in Latin class at McMaster and married in 1955 and with whom
he had three children, Tony (Jodie
KARPF,)
Peter
(Kathy
HALLIDAY,)
and Sarah (John
HELSTON.)
After
Betty's death in 1984, John entered
into a joyous union with Joan
WANSBROUGH (née
LAWSON) in 1985
and found himself a delighted stepfather to Michael (Liane
BEAM,)
Connie (Eric
LOWY) and Gwyn (Andres
DUSSAN.) He was an adored
Grandpa to Taylor, Eli, Anders, Mac, Simone, Claire, Melissa,
Kaitlin, Diego and Daniela.
A master storyteller, dapper dresser and consummate host, John
enjoyed life to the full. With Joan he travelled the world, enjoyed
the arts, entertained his wide circle of dear Friends, and reveled
in the beauty of their cottage on Peninsula Lake, and their farm
at Mansfield.
The best summary of John's life comes from his granddaughter,
Simone. When in 2002 John retired from the bench and was feted
during his last day in court, in full regalia and with many testimonials
to his skills in jurisprudence and mediation, four-year-old Simone
looked up at her Uncle Peter and, in an awestruck voice, asked
"Is Grandpa a hero?" Yes, Simone, John Elston
VANDUZER was a
hero.
There will be a Celebration and Tribute to John at the Hamilton
Golf and Country Club, 232 Golf Links Road, Ancaster, on Sunday,
November 13th, 2005, from 12: 00-3:00 p.m. John would love all
his Friends and family to be there.
Donations in lieu of flowers may be made to the John E. VanDuzer
Scholarship Fund through the Hamilton Community Foundation, 120
King St. W., Suite 700, Hamilton, L8C 4V2.
