Glenn Colton, musicologist and pianist, is an associate professor and Chair of the Department of Music at Lakehead University, where he teaches courses in music history, Canadian music, and music criticism. Glenns research has focused on aspects of music in Canada, including the music of composers Jean Coulthard and Sophie-Carmen Eckhardt-Gramatt and the musical traditions of Newfoundland and Labrador (the primary emphasis of his work in recent years). In 2007, he co-edited (with Dr. Beverley Diamond of Memorial University) a special music volume on the latter topic in the journal Newfoundland and Labrador Studies. Other published contributions include articles in the Canadian University Music Review, the International Alliance for Women in Music Journal, the University of Toronto Quarterly, the Newfoundland Quarterly, Fermata, the Phenomenon of Singing, and the Encyclopedia of Music in Canada, among other publications. His recently completed biography of Canadian composer, music educator, and arts administrator Frederick Emerson is being published by McGill-Queens University Press.
