Extract from Wikipedia
Tālivaldis Ķeniņš was a Latvian-Canadian composer and teacher. He was forced to emigrate from Latvia when it fell under Soviet occupation after World War II, moving to Canada in 1951. He is credited by Canadian musicologist Paul Rapoport with having introduced many European idioms to Canadian art music. CBC Music described him as a "pioneering Canadian composer" and The Canadian Encyclopedia described him as "one of Canada's most frequently commissioned composers."
