Maurice Bolyer (December 1, 1920 – August 18, 1978), born Maurice Beaulieu, was a composer and musician known as “Canada's King of the Banjo”. Bolyer was born in Edmundston, New Brunswick, Canada. Although proficient in a variety of string instruments and piano, he is best known for his work on the banjo, an instrument that Bolyer took up in his late teens. Beginning in the 1940s, Bolyer appeared regularly on Canadian radio stations CKCW (Moncton, New Brunswick) and CKNX (Wingham, Ontario). Boyler joined the CBC Radio program ''The Tommy Hunter Show'' in 1963, continuing with the show when it moved to television in 1965. Bolyer also appeared as a guest on the Lawrence Welk and Arthur Godfrey shows in the United States.〔(www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com )〕〔(Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame - Bolyer biography )〕 Bolyer was inducted posthumously into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 1989.〔(Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame )〕 ==See also== * Banjo Hall of Fame Members 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maurice Bolyer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
