Biography
  1. Despite his prolific output, Canadian-born American composer and music teacher, Charles Jones (1910-1997), perhaps is best known for his long association with the Juilliard School and the Mannes College of Music in New York City. Born in Tamworth, Ontario, Jones moved to Toronto at the age of ten, where he studied the violin and theory. In 1928, he went to New York and studied violin at the Institute of Musical Art with Sascha Jacobson, graduating in 1932. In 1935, Jones entered the Juilliard School on a fellowship; he studied compostion with Bernard Wagenaar and graduated in 1939. He was sent by the Juilliard School to Oakland, California to teach at Mills College, where he met the French composer Darius Milhaud. The two men collaborated on several projects over the course of a long friendship, including residencies at the Aspen Music Festival. In 1946, Jones returned to New York. He began teaching composition at the Juilliard School in 1954, and later at the Mannes College of Music (from 1972). In spite of his dedication to teaching, Jones considered himself first and foremost a composer. He composed over ninety works, including four symphonies, several string quartets, and numerous vocal works.
