PRODUCTIONS

As a composer, Mr. Tiberio writes concert as well as film music. His prize-winning works have been performed in notable locations worldwide, such as the United Nations in New York City, and by acclaimed musicians, including members of the Orchestre Lamoureux in Paris, France—known for premiering works of Debussy and Ravel.

His beloved Três Rascunhos para Clarinete em Si bemol (2009) awarded him a Woodwind Quintet Residency at New York University, leading to the composition of Vinhetas do diário de um musicista (2009), which in turn opened the doors to the Musica Nueva Málaga festival that same year, for which his orchestral composition Sê Natural won the Best Composition Award.

Back in New York, the film Air: The True Story of Gil C. Alicea, a feature documentary with his score, was chosen to open the 2012 Long Island Latino International Film Festival, and the acclaimed web series Be Strong Be Naked resulted in the composition of over three hours of music, from which a soundtrack album is to be released.

In 2016, his Choro No. 1 and Choro No. 2 were premièred at Theatro Municipal João Caetano, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in a historically significant concert: it marked the first time that the Porta Corta-Fogo, Roberto Burle Marx’s largest painting, until then unknown, was presented to the public in a concert setting. This began a long, fruitful collaboration with the Walter Burle Marx Estate, leading to his accepting the Presidency of the Burle Marx Music Society.

In 2019, Mr. Tiberio became one of four living composers to write original music for America’s Wonders, the world’s first 3-dimensional, IMAX-style cinematic journey with live orchestra. Acclaimed are his Water, a 12 1/2-minute score to scenes of the water-based American national parks, and Shenandoah, an original arrangement of the traditional melody for strings and harp. He also created the synchronization assets for this show and, later in 2024, for Lasting Impressions, a 3D show consisting of impressionistic paintings coming to life in sync with music by Debussy, Ravel, and other French composers.
