THE EARLY YEARS

Having one brother older, and as the eldest girl in a family of six children, Glenda was the beloved caregiver of four younger siblings. Drama classes propelled her onto stages everywhere and especially those of competitive festivals, mostly capturing the gold wherever she appeared. With classical training in piano from four years of age, she was a natural in her parent’s dance band at eleven. Learning to ‘wing it’ in these incredibly rhythmic surroundings, she became the bands’ music arranger in her teens.

BODY OF WORK

Glenda and her music have been touching people’s lives since she was a child as a wedding vocalist; as a teen in the leadership of choirs and bands; as an experienced teacher in many public and private schools. And then, ultimately, in the roles of music director and producer of huge concerts and theatre pieces, i.e. THE WIZARD of OZ with 101 smiling children.
