Early life
Chadabe was born December 12, 1938, in Bronx, NY, the son of Solon Chadabe, a lawyer, and Sylvia (née Cohen) Chadabe, a homemaker. Joel attended grade school at the Bentley School and then University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He studied music in college and graduated in 1959, despite his parents hoping that he would become a lawyer. Chadabe then continued his education at Yale University, studying with the composer Elliott Carter and completing a Master's degree in music (M.M.) in 1962. [13]
Computer music and career
Upon completing his education at Yale, Chadabe and Carter traveled to Italy, where Chadabe continued his studies.[13] Chadabe was interested in jazz and opera, but was offered a job opportunity at the State University of New York at Albany (SUNY Albany) to direct its electronic music studio.[13]
