| | Folk Music in Canada Today |
| | Music depending upon an elaborate interplay of instrumental voices; music that is designed to be listened to, not sung or danced to; slow and stately dance music; processional or martial music — these constitute court music, not folk music. | | | That is not a criticism, for all folk songs and music form part of a continuing musical plexus. | | | The overlap with folk music is broad, admittedly; but country-and-western music is only an offshoot from folk music, not its lineal descendant. |

| | Introduction - Sheet Music from Canada's Past - Library and Archives Canada |
| | Researchers and music enthusiasts from Canada and abroad turn to this collection in their search for representative musical works from Canada's past. | | | Since then, the Library and Archives Canada Canadiana sheet music collection has grown to become the most comprehensive in the country, and includes over 20 000 patriotic and parlour songs, piano pieces, sacred music and novelty numbers, some dating back to the 1700s. | | | In the past, because of its size and fragility, and the modest artistic aspirations of many of its composers, sheet music was often considered ephemera by music libraries and seldom formed a part of their permanent collections. |
