Jeff Harrington

Puce

Mississippi-born composer and computer programmer Jeff Harrington (b.1955) began composing at age 17 and almost immediately won a serial music composition contest. His music has alternated between diatonic tonality and more chromatic, sometimes microtonal styles, and has been performed around the world “from Siberia to St. Louis.” He studied at Louisiana State University and the Juilliard School, and his teachers have included Elliott Carter, Roger Sessions, and Morton Subotnick.
