MusicFest Hall of Fame

 

The MusicFest Hall of Fame Award is awarded annually to an individual who has made a major contribution to music education, on a national level, in Canada. It is awarded at the discretion of the Board of Directors and is reserved for people who have had a national influence.

Wayne Hill was an outstanding music educator. For more than 15 years, he was the Regional Coordinator of Music Alive, one of the largest MusicFest regional festivals in Ontario.  Wayne passed away in 2017, and we grant this honour to him, and express our admiration and appreciation for all his contributions to Canadian music education. His commitment to MusicFest Canada’s initiatives over the past many years has been truly extraordinary, a contribution for which we are, and will be forever be, grateful.
