The Glacier Express does not begin or end anywhere near Montreux. Where were you thinking of joining it?
The Golden Pass scenic trip would be a good one to do from Montreux:

>> Is it better to stay in montreux or make our base in Vevey area.Our main attraction to stay in Montreux is also the Jazz festival that will be happening there.
Either would be OK. If you have not yet booked accommodation in Montreux during the dates of the Jazz Festival, you might have to look further afield to get something that meets your preferences, especially in regards to price.
