International Countertenor Terry Barber Moves to St. Louis

The city of St. Louis just added another notable player to its music scene with the arrival of internationally renowned and classically-trained countertenor, Terry Barber. Countertenors, men who can easily sing in the classical or “bel canto” style in the range of a woman, are the rarest voice type, putting Barber in the elite ranks of the 50 or so high level professional countertenors in the world. Barber has performed as a soloist at some of the world’s greatest venues from Carnegie Hall in New York City, to Svetlanov Hall in Moscow, to Queen Elizabeth Hall in London.
