Jeff Smallman is a prolific and versatile Canadian composer. Having begun writing at the age of 8, he now has over 200 works in print. Jeff graduated from the University of Western Ontario in 1987 with an honours degree in Theory and Composition, having studied with Alan Heard and Gerhard Wuensch.
Equally at home composing for voice or instruments, Jeff’s style relies heavily on the Romantic/Impressionist musical language, with hints of modernism thrown in. Several of his pieces have either won national competitions or been finalists in international competition, and many others have been included in conservatory and festival settings. His works continue to be heard around the world.
Jeff was admitted to the Canadian League of Composers in 2004, and in 2017 was accepted as an Associate Composer of the Canadian Music Centre.
