Winspear Centre for Music

Dr. Winspear's dream dated back a long way, and was a dream shared by many. When the Jubilee Auditoriums were built in Edmonton and Calgary (both opened in 1957), they graced each city with a multi-purpose facility designed for any and every type of performance. Each hall became the performance home for the respective orchestras in each city. But clearly, the reproduction of music in its clearest, most pristine form, fell outside the mandate of what each Jubilee Auditorium was meant to be.
