Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

CAMMAC : Non-profit society founded in Montréal in 1953 by brothers George and Carl Little and their wives Madeleine and Frances. The objective of CAMMAC (Canadian Amateur Musicians/Musiciens amateurs du Canada) is to stimulate the work of amateur musicians employed in various spheres of musical activity (courses, concerts, etc.). First established as a summer camp, the society based itself at Otter Lake in Huberdeau, northwest of Montréal. A few years later, CAMMAC extended its activities to the winter season, and adopted regional committees, the most active being those in Montréal (national office), Toronto and Ottawa-Hull.
