Teacher of the Year

The MusiCounts Teacher of the Year Award recognizes the incredible, dedicated and hard-working music teachers in Canada who help keep music alive for so many young Canadians. Each year, the award is sponsored by an artist, including Anne Murray, Céline Dion, Michael Bublé, The Rolling Stones, and The Tragically Hip.

The recipient receives a $10,000 cheque, a significant contribution to the recipient’s school music program, an all expense paid trip to the annual JUNO Awards, and a spectacular handcrafted award commissioned by Canadian glass artist Shirley Elford, designer of the JUNO Awards statuette.
