Brian Catuccio is a music producer, sound engineer, and classically trained violinist from Waterbury, CT. He works and plays in many different styles and is quick to adapt to any situation. He has graduated from Berklee College of Music with a degree in music production and engineering and is ready to start his career in the music industry.
In his early childhood, Brian Catuccio was inspired by Andre Rieu, a classical violinist, whom he saw in concert on Connecticut Public Television (CPTV). At that moment he knew he wanted a career in music. At age 8, in third grade at B.W. Tinker School in Waterbury, Connecticut, Brian began taking instrumental music lessons and performed both in a group and as a soloist in the Christmas and Spring concerts put on by the school each year. He played the violin with such great expression that his principal and some members of the audience broke down in tears when they heard him play the Ave Maria. Brian joined the debut orchestra of the Greater Waterbury Youth Symphony (GWYS) at age 10 and worked his way up from the debut, to the symphonette, to the most advanced principal orchestra four years later. In the 2008/2009 semesters he was a concert master in the principal orchestra. During the opening ceremonies of the Waterbury Arts Magnet School (WAMS), Brian played the national anthem in solo on stage at the Palace Theater. As a student there, he has taken classical orchestra classes and performed in several shows on the Palace Theater and school stages as an orchestra member. WAMS developed a rock orchestra and Brian took the lead role as an electric violinist. He has also taken private violin lessons with critically acclaimed concert violinist, Peter Ferreira.
Mark Wood, a classically trained principal violinist of the Trans Siberian Orchestra, gave Brian master classes in violin and invited him to play by his side in concert at the Palace Theater on February 1, 2008, along with the WAMS rock orchestra.
On December 18, 2009, Mike Haydeck, the WFSB Channel 3 Eyewitness News morning team anchor, visited the Waterbury Arts Magnet School for a “Cool Schools” live news story. Brian was featured in a segment called “Cool for Digital Music”.
Brian composes and records his own music, playing all of the instruments involved himself. He has arranged music and recorded those songs on his CDs as well.
Brian graduated with a major in Music Production and Engineering from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. The "hands-on" learning approach has really honed his skills as a recording engineer and producer, as well as an overall musician. Brian has worked with many artists at Berklee and has worked in many different styles and scenarios. He has also been featured as a violinist on numerous songs and film scores written by his fellow classmates. His ability to easily adapt to any situation allows him to work with anyone in any style.
