Our Collaborators

Since our founding in 1983, The Glenn Gould Foundation has had the privilege of working with musicians, artists, cultural leaders, not-for-profits, and corporations from around the world. With their involvement, we have presented concerts, festivals and educational programs, supported young artists, commissioned new works, worked with journalists, writers and academic researchers, produced and shared expertise with various publications, and been active with a wide assortment of other humanitarian and cultural activities. Here is a partial list of these essential collaborators.

    I had the tremendously rewarding experience in 2011 of being a member of the Glenn Gould Prize Jury. It was a stimulating and unforgettable experience to engage around a table with such a diverse array of gifted artists to consider a staggering slate of nominees. The discussions enabled us to look deeply into the importance of the arts in all our lives, and their value to the world as a whole. Glenn Gould is one of my heroes… I believe cultural, creative, and artistic communities the world over can unite under the banner of this great Canadian and world citizen.
