Steve
Perillo is a composer by night and the president of an
international tour company, Perillo Tours, by day. He
resides in Saddle River, New Jersey.
Mr. Perillo’s composition studies were almost solely
under the guidance of David del Tredici at Boston
University.
His works are a colorful and dramatic combination of
pop, classical and 20th century concert styles. While
eclectic, he maintains a rigorous formal technique.
Mr. Perillo’s catalog includes dozens of piano works,
100 pop songs, a flute sonata, brass quintet, 2 wind
quintets, piano trio, string quartet, 8 extended "tone
poems" for large orchestra, a piano concerto and a "Magnificat"
for mixed chorus and orchestra.
His first commercial recording, Requiem for a Goldfish,
was released on the Centaur label in September 1999.
Critics were unanimous in their praise. It has been
played numerous times on national and local radio
stations.
Mr. Perillo’s 2nd and 3rd CD’s were also released in
2001 on the Centaur Label - "Perillo’s Magnificat and
other Choral Masterpieces" and "Napoli!"
