The fascinating story of Canada’s most revered concert hall and the myriad artists who have graced its stage. Known for its intimacy and sense of occasion, a night at Toronto’s Massey Hall is magical for both audiences and performers. For many musicians, playing the hall is the surest sign that they have made it. Looking out over the crowd, performers often comment that they feel they have joined history as they stand on the stage where Sarah Vaughan, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan, and so many other legends have stood. Based on scores of interviews and meticulous research, Massey Hall chronicles not only the historical and musical moments of the past 127 years, but also the community of artists and supporters that has built up around the hall. Covering both emerging artists such as Shakura S’Aida and William Prince and musical giants from Herbie Hancock to the Tragically Hip, this full-colour book is a celebration of music, community, and our shared cultural heritage.
"M. Night Shyamalan seemed to have it all. He'd directed a string of hit movies for Disney, beginning with the supernatural thriller The Sixth Sense, which had brought in over two billion dollars around the world. He had a beautiful wife, a loving family, a house with its own theater - the whole thing. People were calling him "the next Spielberg." Then he wrote a screenplay called Lady in the Water." "It was a fairy tale, really, an adaptation of a bedtime story he had invented for his young daughters. But when the bosses at Disney read the script, they told him they "didn't get it." Night felt he knew what they were really thinking: This guy has lost his mind. He boldly decided to leave the safety of his longtime filmmaking home and find new partners who would understand his odd story and idiosyncratic self. Night needed people who would help him make the most daring, ambitious, and deeply personal picture of his life." "He had panic attacks all along - while writing, while casting, while directing. For his hero, he didn't want a proven box-office star like Tom Hanks or Tom Cruise, but the brilliant but lesser-known Paul Giamatti. He wanted Lady filmed in a lush style by a wild man cinematographer that no director had ever tamed. And he wanted the movie to open on seven thousand screens across the world at the height of the summer popcorn season." "In The Man Who Heard Voices, Michael Bamberger takes you deep into Night's world during the creation of Lady in the Water. Based on nearly two years of exclusive, intimate reporting, Bamberger's book takes the cover off the secretive director's inspiring methods: handpicking a cast and crew he can mold into a temporary family; weighing on-the-set choices that will define his movie forever; and leading, even when he's lost. Most important, Bamberger penetrates the mind and artistic vision of a creative genius working at the peak of his powers, driven to bring his vision to the screen by the voices of creation - and self-doubt - that forever haunt him."--BOOK JACKET.
Unbuilt Toronto explores never-realized building projects in and around Toronto, from the city’s founding to the twenty-first century. Delving into unfulfilled and largely forgotten visions for grand public buildings, landmark skyscrapers, highways, subways, and arts and recreation venues, it outlines such ambitious schemes as St. Alban's Cathedral, the Queen subway line and early city plans that would have resulted in a Paris-by-the-Lake. Readers may lament the loss of some projects (such as the Eaton’s College Street tower), be thankful for the disappearance of others (a highway through the Annex), and marvel at the downtown that could have been (with underground roads and walkways in the sky). Featuring 147 photographs and illustrations, many never before published, Unbuilt Toronto casts a different light on a city you thought you knew.
