Described as “a voice to watch out for” by CBC’s Bill Richardson, Joseph Glaser’s music creates space for performers and audiences alike to have out-of-the-ordinary experiences. Having had many years of training as a dancer, Joseph looks at composition with a choreographic eye leading to pieces that are as much about physical movement as they are about sound. A graduate of McGill University where he studied with Jean Lesage, his thesis explored the relationship between dance theory and music performance. Joseph also holds a degree from the University of British Columbia where he studied withJocelyn Morlock, Dorothy Chang, Keith Hamel and Stephen Chatman.

Joseph has had his works performed across the country in Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal. Notable performances include a one-act opera developed with FAWN Chamber Creative, premieres by Bakarlari, theToy Piano Composers, McGill Contemporary Music Ensemble under Guillaume Burgogne, Caution Tape Sound Collective, the Gryphon Trio and the Amici Chamber Ensemble among others. Joseph co-founded Ear Camera, an experimental music collective that was based in Montreal.
