BIOGRAPHY
Anthony Barbera is an author and composer who is inspired by his love of music and literature.
He began his career as a music composer for films and commercials and earned his B.M. in Music Composition from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. While pursuing his Master’s Degree at the University o... f Massachusetts, he won numerous awards, one of which was first prize for “Two Songs for Soprano and Orchestra on Poems by Rilke,” performed by the North Carolina Symphony Orchestra.
