The Canadian Film Centre opened the Slaight Family Music Lab in 2013, sponsored by the Slaight Family Foundation.[1] Every year a small group of promising composers and song-writers are invited to study under a distinguished composer.

The first mentor was Howard Shore, who composed the music for many films, including Marc Jordan was the mentor in 2014.[2]
