Michael Glasgow
Michael
J. Glasgow is originally from Michigan. He holds B.A. degrees in
music theory/composition and in journalism as well as a Master of
Church Music degree from Concordia University, Wisconsin as the
program's first double-emphasis student, in both choral and
handbell music.
In addition to many professional affiliations and his full-time
position as the Minister of Music at North Raleigh UMC (Raleigh,
NC), Michael serves as Bass Section Leader for the North Carolina
Master Chorale and the Choral Conductor for the Tar River Orchestra
& Chorus. He is a dynamic, energizing conductor who connects
well with people and music, and as such is sought after for
conducting engagements throughout the country.
As a composer, Michael keeps busy with commissions and his own
projects, and he strives to creatively advance the art of handbell
ringing. He was awarded a first prize in the 2006 Soundprint
Productions Composition Contest for his original jazz handbell
piece, Celerity; as well as first prize in the 2007 Bells of
the Sound "Three Ring Circus" Composition Contest for Bumping
Noses. His most recent contest win is for Welcome the
King, an SATB carol accompanied by solo viola, created for the
2009 VocalEssence "Welcome Christmas" composition
contest.
Michael is proud to be an integral part in the development of new
handbell events, having conducted the first three annual
Anthornis events for advanced ringers in Minneapolis in
2008-2010. He also serves as the Editor for the AGEHR Area III
newsletter, The Bell-O-Gram, and is a member of ASCAPand
American Composers Forum. Additional information and samples
