  • Brian Cherney (Peterborough, 4 de setembre de 1942) és un compositor canadenc que resideix actualment a Mont-real (Quebec). Cherney va néixer a Peterborough, Ontario. Va estudiar a la Universitat de Toronto, on va ser deixeble de John Weinzweig, Samuel Dolin i John Beckwith. El 1972 es va incorporar a la "Schulich School of Music" de la Universitat McGill, on ha ensenyat anàlisi i composició durant més de trenta anys. Les seves peces, sovint caracteritzades per trajectòries formals acuradament calculades i un ric llenguatge harmònic, donen la impressió d'una intensitat tranquil·la, que normalment presenta "quietud" d'alguna manera. Les seves obres s'han reproduït a tota Amèrica del Nord, Europa i altres llocs. Cherney manté una activa carrera com a compositor, professor i autor; el seu llibre Harry Somers (1975, U of T Press) continua sent una de les obres de referència més importants i detallades d'aquest compositor. Va rebre el premi Jules Léger de nova música de cambra el 1985 per River of Fire. És el germà de l'oboista . Cherney va ser nomenat membre de l'Ordre del Canadà el 2021. (ca)
