Jaeger, David (Trent). (website: https://davidjaeger.ca/) Composer, producer, performer, b Green Bay, Wisc, 19 Nov 1947; B MUS (Wisconsin) 1970, M MUS (Toronto) 1972. Upon graduating from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, he received a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship and continued studies at the University of Toronto 1970-2 with John Weinzweig and Gustav Ciamaga. He attended the Summer Electronic Music Institute in Dartmouth, NH, in the summer of 1972, working with Jon Appleton and Hubert Howe.

In the early 1970s Jaeger established a digital sound synthesis facility at the University of Toronto, one of the first in Canada. He joined the CBC in 1973 as a radio music producer for various series including ‘Music of Today’, which included 10 broadcasts he produced with Glenn Gould in celebration of the Centennial of composer Arnold Schoenberg. Jaeger and Gould remained friends & collaborators until Gould’s death in 1982. In 1978 he created one of the world’s most celebrated new music programs, “Two New Hours”, which was heard on the national CBC Radio Two network until spring, 2007. In the course of this long-running series he produced over 1,200 concert recordings, and commissioned more than 300 new musical works. A large number of these commissioned works have become iconic works in the Canadian musical cannon, including R. Murray Schafer’s 3rd String Quartet, the opera, ‘Iron Road’ by Ka Nin Chan and ‘The Qualities of Consonance’ by Ann Southam. His surround-sound production, ‘Cathedral Songs’ helped to launch the new Canadian Broadcasting Centre in Toronto, with a commissioned work by Canadian composer Glenn Buhr for the combined forces of the Nexus Percussion Ensemble, the Toronto Children’s Chorus, the Hannaford Street Silver Band and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jukka Pekka Saraste. The recording of this event won a Gold Medal at the International Radio Festival of New York in 1996.

David Jaeger won numerous broadcasting awards, including the CBC President’s Award in 2009.

In 1990 his Centrediscs double-CD “Schafer: 5” (String Quartets of R. Murray Schafer with the Orford String Quartet) won two Juno awards. From 1999 to 2010 he was the music producer for the “A Window on Somers” recording project, completing 11 CDs of the music of Harry Somers. In 2010 his Centrediscs CD “Wild Bird” (music by Schafer, Agocs, & Chan) won the Canadian Composition Juno for Schafer’s “Duo for Violin & Piano”. He has produced over 200 LP & CD recordings and has won 7 Juno Awards to date (2013).

From 1974 to 2002 he served as the CBC Radio coordinator of the CBC/Radio-Canada National Radio Competition for Young Composers, which was a successful long term project for the development of emerging Canadian Composers.

In 2002 David Jaeger was elected President of the International Rostrum of Composers, and was the only non-European president in the history of the IRC He served as President of the IRC until 2008.

His commitment to new music has made available to radio audiences a full spectrum of music from around the world, with a special emphasis on Canadian music and performers. Jaeger has encouraged a generation of composers and musicians, aiding in the birth of a number of ensembles and festivals dedicated to this repertoire.

Jaeger was a founding member of the Canadian Electronic Ensemble, a group which, when it was formed in 1971, was on the leading edge of live performance with electronic instruments. The ensemble has provided Jaeger with an outlet for his compositional efforts and experiments. Many of his works include an electronic element, although he continues to write for acoustic instruments (eg, Double Wind Quintet, 1975; Lyrics for Solo Marimba (1985), Aria for cello and piano, 1987; and Sonatas no. 1 and 2 for viola and piano, 2021 and 2023). Favour (1980) and Fool’s Paradise for electric viola have been recorded by Rivka Golani, and Shadowbox and Spirit Cloud have been recorded by accordionist Joseph Petric on Centrediscs and Redshift Records, respectively. In 2023 recordings of his viola repertoire were released by two violists: Elizabeth Reid (on Redshift Records) and Carol Gimbel (on Navona Redordings.)
