The band has played live on the CBC and with the Philadelphia Pops. Glenn's music has been used by Woody Allen (Deconstructing Harry soundtrack), and he was a featured soloist on Sidney Lumet's "A Stranger Among Us." His klezmer-fusion band, Naftule’s Dream, features Glenn's compositions and has played major jazz festivals in the US, Canada and Europe, including the Berlin, Montreal and New York Jazz Festivals and recorded for John Zorn’s Tzadik and the Innova labels. Glenn is a recipient of a Mass Cultural Council Artist Grant award in composition.
