Biography
Antonio Del Valle (he/they) is an award winning Composer, Lyricist and Music Director from Queens, New York. Trained at the Professional Performing Arts School in Manhattan, they went on to receive their Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Musical Theater with an emphasis in Songwriting at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee College of Music. Antonio is currently part of the BMI 2024 Lehman Engel Workshop as a Composer/Lyricist, and part of the inaugural David Lee Conducting Program, hosted by Muse.
Their most recent work, Bel-Air, was featured as part of the 25th anniversary of the Prospect Musical Theater Lab. Original compositions have been featured in the 10th annual McGuire & Simon Holiday Salon, benefiting Broadway Hearts, as well as the 2024 BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theater Spotlight Series. They recently worked as the co-composer, lyricist, and book-writer for a new adaptation of Pride and Prejudice as part of the second year BMI workshop.
They also wrote the music, lyrics, and libretto for an original ten minute musical titled South First, an exploration into the degradation of Nuyorican culture in New York City against the backdrop extreme gentrification in Williamsburg.
Most recent experience includes serving as the Associate Conductor and Music Director for Highbridge Voices, one of the few arts organizations dedicated to choral singing in the South Bronx. Their work as a collaborative pianist has been featured at Jazz at Lincoln Center, PepsiCo, Rosie’s Theater Kids, as well as the MUSE DreamGirls Event, hosted and conducted by Seth Rudetsky.
They continue their work as a teaching artist, where they have designed and implemented a digital music curriculum in NYC public schools that explores the legacy and impact of Black popular music in America, culminating in the latest Hip-Hop inventions. Sessions include units in songwriting, lyric-writing, and beat making for all students enrolled.
As an Afro-Puerto Rican, Antonio is passionate about creating music that highlights the rich musical culture of the Caribbean, and preserving the legacy of West African culture across the diaspora. They write music that explores the depths of their consciousness, and surfaces anew.
