The award jurors stated that Christina Petrowska Quilico<br />
“has made an astonishing contribution to musical life in<br />
Canada.” As they remarked: “Christina is a champion of<br />
Canadian composers – and her pioneering dedication<br />
to Canadian female composers is especially noteworthy.<br />
She has helped to secure this period of Canadian music<br />
through her impressive catalogue of recordings, and<br />
further through the ripple effect of her many students.<br />
She is steadfast. She is legend.” See pg 16<br />
