Eric Fillion has published a co-edited volume on Ontario-born jazz pianist Lou Hooper entitled through McGill-Queen's 카지노게임사이트 Press (2023).
Dr. Fillion, who currently holds the department's Buchanan Postdoctoral Fellowship and teaches as an adjunct professor, worked alongside co-editors Sean Mills (Queen's PhD, 2007) and Désirée Rochat to assemble a striking collection of primary source documents including Hooper's previously unpublished autobiography and a number of scholarly commentaries on this iconic figure of Canadian jazz. With Statesman of the Piano, Fillion and his co-editors hope to spark new conversations about Hooper카지노 게임 컬렉션™s legacy while shedding light on the cross-border travels and wartime experiences of Black musicians, the politics of archiving and curating, and the connections between race and music in the twentieth century.
Congratulations Dr. Fillion on the completion of such an important project in Canadian music history!
