Acknowledgements

We are incredibly grateful for the unwavering support of our seminar professor, Jada Watson, without whom this project would not have been possible.  

We would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to our participants, Daphne Burt, Geneviève Cimon, Heather Gibson, and Robert VanderBerg from the National Arts Centre for their time, insight, collaboration, and patience during the course of this public musicology research project in spite of their busy schedules.  

The additional assistance provided by other National Arts Centre staff: Alexandra Campeau, Kelly Racicot, and Marilena Gaudio was also greatly appreciated.

Acknowledging the assistance of Roxanne Lafleur is also important to us. Our project was made accessible to the public because of her diligence and guidance in setting up the OMEKA platform. 

The continued encouragement of our loving families, friends, and partners gave us motivation through the challenges of the 2020/2021 school year and beyond—so we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 

It was our pleasure to tell the story of the National Arts Centre through the COVID-19 pandemic. Their monumental work has provided insights, tools, and resources moving forward with the use of online platforms in the performing arts.
