Anthony Vine is a composer and guitarist living in Red Hook, Brooklyn. His music has been presented internationally through collaborations with Alarm Will Sound, Quatuor Bozzini, the Minnesota Orchestra, Yarn/Wire, and many other musicians. In 2016, he was awarded the Gaudeamus International Composers Award. The jury noted, “Anthony Vine creates a solid, mature, beautifully crafted fragile sound world. He knows how to blur the identity of the different sources of sounds including the use of electronics in a very singular way.” Vine currently serves as the composer-in-residence at The Filomen M. D’Agostino Music School through the support of an Artist Employment Program grant from Creatives Rebuild New York.
