Glenn Van Looy presents 5 Concert Pieces

Glenn Van Looy, born in Bonheiden, Belgium, is an exceptional euphonium player of the 21st century. His musical journey began early under the guidance of his father, a bass trombonist. He studied at renowned institutions such as the Secondary School of Art in Antwerp and the Lemmens Institute in Leuven. Van Looy excels both as a soloist and ensemble player, and he was already a member of prestigious brass bands at a young age. His solo career has been celebrated with numerous awards at international competitions across Europe and beyond. Yet, his accomplishments go beyond competitions; he has also collaborated as a sought-after concert soloist with esteemed orchestras like the Brussels Philharmonic Orchestra and the European Youth Brass Band. Glenn Van Looy's remarkable achievements have earned him prestigious titles, including victory at the Ern Keller Memorial in Sydney, Australia, as International Soloist of the Year. He also won the international soloist competitions of Jeju and Lieksa in 2011 and 2012. A new collaboration emerged with composers Otto M. Schwarz and Thomas Doss. Together with them, he created the book "Glenn van Looy presents 5 Concert Pieces for Euphonium & Piano," published by Symphonic Dimensions Publishing. This work contributes to the expansion of the euphonium repertoire and underlines Van Looy's commitment.
