Frank Glover

Frank Glover is contemporary a jazz musician and composer.

Says one reviewer: "[He] is a superb clarinetist. I hear him in the realm of Eddie Daniels. Eddie has raised jazz clarinet quite a few notches to a higher technical and intellectual level. And, I feel Frank has done the same.”[1] Glover is truly a cultural treasure. He is a transcendently gifted jazz clarinetist, recording artist, and the recipient of many honors. One such award from the National Endowment for the Arts supported a concert at Carnegie Hall.

Glover performs with his longtime partner, pianist Claude Sifferlen, himself also a jazz legend. His latest CD, Politico, has received glowing reviews. Chuck Workman in Nuvo writes, "If the sum of a jazz artist is his musical innovation and integrity, then Glover has reached his pinnacle in this astounding CD".[2]
