Jeffrey Barrett

My name is Jeffrey Barrett I’m from Robbins North Carolina a small rural town in the piedmont area of NC.  Throughout elementary and secondary education I learned to play the piano, viola, baritone horn, and sing and developed a strong passion for playing and making music.   In the spring of 2013 I graduated from North Carolina A&T State University with a B.S. in Music Education.  My concentration instrument while at A&T was the baritone horn, and throughout college I had solo recitals on both the piano and the baritone horn.  I marched in the Blue and Gold Marching Machine (the university marching band) all fours years including 2012 when we marched in the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade.  Throughout undergrad I became a member of several honors societies including Alpha lambda Delta, Alpha Kappa Mu, Golden Key, and Phi Kappa Phi.  I am also a spring 2013 initiate into the Iota Beta chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Fraternity of America Incorporated.    I am currently in graduate school at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts.  At UNCSA I’m getting my M.F.A. in Film Music Composition and I hope to one day become a successful film composer.
