Glass Orchestra was a Toronto-based new music ensemble that works exclusively in the medium of glass, employing custom- or hand-made instruments (eg, glass harmonica, flute, xylophone) and 'found' objects (bowls, wine glasses, bottles, tubes, etc). The Glass Orchestra dates its beginnings to late 1977, it was based initially at the Music Gallery and has given many of its concerts in museums and art galleries. The ensemble performed at the Ontario Science Centre in 1979, 1987 and 1988, at Expo 86, and at the Festival international de musique actuelle de Victoriaville in 1987. It has been heard frequently on CBC radio music, variety and public affairs programs.
