Dr. Robert GlorOurSong Artistic Director (he/him)

The role of an Artistic Director is much more than rehearsals and conducting. Robert spends months creating concert themes, listening to other performances, carefully selecting songs and imagining the delivery of meaningful concert experiences for the chorus and our audiences. He also looks for additional opportunities to help grow the talent of OurSong and ways to share that talent and our message in the community and abroad. Robert has spent his life devoted to the art of making music.

Prior to working with OurSong, among his many accomplishments are his work as the Artistic Director of the Atlanta Feminist Women’s Chorus, developing choral programs for MCC churches, along with serving as the coordinator of K-12 Choral Music for the DeKalb County School District and the Choral Director and Fine Arts Chairperson at Chamblee High School. A native of Missouri, Robert received his Bachelor’s degree in Music Education from Missouri State University and a Master’s Degree in Voice Performance from Webster University. In 2007, he received his Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Music Education from Shenandoah University in Winchester, Virginia. Robert is an active member of several choral music associations.

Glenn Frankel has sung with OurSong since 2022. Hailing from snowy Buffalo, NY, Glenn has enjoyed being in choirs since he was a kid, where he also learned that he loves acting and being in musicals. From The Sound of Music and Runaways to Pippin and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, he learned that nothing beats working together with a small group of passionate people to bring music and art to their community. That is what he appreciates so much about being a part of OurSong.

DJ is thrilled to join the OurSong board as a Member at Large for the 2025-2026 season. His journey with the choir began back in 2014, and after a hiatus from 2016 to 2023 while living abroad, he is happy to be back in the tenor section.

In 2016, DJ moved to Italy, where he spent six years immersing himself in the culture. During his time there, he mastered Italian, taught English as a second language, and earned a diploma in pastry arts. After four years of working as a professional pastry chef in both Italy and Atlanta, DJ decided to pivot toward a career in healthcare. He is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Georgia State University, building upon his first degree in Vocal Performance and French from LaGrange College.

When he isn’t studying pathophysiology or rehearsing, DJ stays active by running and traveling. An avid linguist who hopes to tackle Arabic next, he also finds joy in cooking and sharing his expertise by teaching baking classes.
