For those of you who have never heard of “The 48 Hour Film Project,” I encourage you to visit their website.  Very exciting filmmaking!  Filmmakers from all around the world, engage in this competition.  Film crew and their teams have 48 hours to film and finalize a 4-7 minute movie.  This year’s competition theme is the “Go Green” challenge.  Films must contain environmental themes.  Awareness, yes! 

I have accepted an offer to be on one of the teams competing, to compose their film score.  I’m thrilled to be a part of this team and am looking forward to seeing what develops! ; )   -will keep you posted on this~

Rowan and I have had another opportunity to work together!  Feldmann Nissan car dealership in Bloomington is throwing a contest to write a jingle for them.  We teamed up to jump at the opportunity to write the Best Song (and/or Music Video) to win!  I composed a Song titled “Make driving fun again” and Rowan took care of the wonderful light-hearted, upbeat voiceover work.

You can rate our song and leave us comments at their jingle website, highlighted below.  Have fun and check it out!

I recently had the privelege to compose the theme music for the Edge Talk Radio program, “Expanding the Holistic Conversation.”  The Edge is a monthly magazine that explores all aspects of holistic living.  Their Blog Talk Radio program will air the first 4 Wednesdays of each month at 6pm.  

Here is the link:   http://www.edgemagazine.net/edge-talk-radio/

*Note:  My partner Rowan helped out with some great voiceover work that’s incorporated into the theme song.  Thank you, Rowan!

Wishing you and yours a wonderful Holiday filled with warm thoughts, cozy slippers and plenty of hot cocoa!  God Bless, Michelle

THIS SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELED DUE TO THE WEATHER.  Sorry everyone.  Stay safe and warm!

I’ll be showcasing my instrumental funk, trance and dance music at the Midtown Global Market in Minneapolis this Sunday, Dec. 12 between 1 and 3pm.  It’s a great place to shop, eat and enjoy some music.  Come and say hello!

Monday, November 29th, I appeared on the television show “Showcase Minnesota” which is aired on NBC’s KARE 11 station.  From start to finish, e-mails to greetings, they were such nice people to work with.  Thank you to Rob Hudson and Corbin Seitz, the producer Jessica Fix, the sound engineer Nichole White and all else involved for making it such a pleasurable experience.

Catch me next at the CD/Record store Cheapo discs in Uptown, Friday Dec. 3rd at 6pm.

Exciting news!  I will be the featured musical guest on NBC KARE 11’s daytime show “Showcase Minnesota.”  It airs on Monday, November 29 at 10:00am on the Twin Cities television station number 11.  I hope you get a chance to see me on my first television appearance!  I will be playing music from my new CD “Between Time.”

The Holiday Season is upon us, and so are the Holiday parties, functions and get-t0gethers.  I’d be honored to provide your Holiday event with some elegant and ambient piano music, or with a little dancing and grooving music if you so desire.  Music can add that special magic touch!  Simply send your request through my contact page.

Remodeling has taken place at the Glaser residence!  We converted our basement into the new studio space for Michelle Glaser Music.  We’re very pleased with the results, and it’s a great place where I can create!  Also, it is where I consult with clients about composing a custom song for them, or collaborate with other musicians.  All in all, Michelle Glaser Music is ready to meet your needs.

(To check out pics of the new studio space, go to my “Photos” tab and scroll to the bottom of the screen).  Enjoy!
