Anthony Carrera is a Brooklyn based world music multi-instrumentalist. He has fully devoted his life to music, as a student and teacher. Teaching Sitar, Handpan, and Classical/Flamenco Guitar. He is constantly aiming to absorb and learn about the various styles of music that the world has to offer. As a collector and restorer of traditional and non-traditional instruments, he is able to see the beauty in all instruments.
Anthony believes that all styles of music should be learned in it’s most traditional manners, and that music lives on when it’s blended. Learning traditionally preserves the beauty, the style and pays respect to the culture that it came from. While a fusion of styles of music, honors the art and creativity of blending things together to create something truly beautiful and unique. Anthony showcases this artful balance when fusing Sitar and Handpan together, creating a melodic dream for the audience and showcasing the beauty of the instruments in tandem with one another.
A TRUE WORLD MUSICIAN
Anthony’s experimentation with music, has led to him playing Sitar and Handpan together; as well as blending together traditional and obscure instruments like the Berimbau, the Asalato, and the Guzheng into his original compositions.
“Someone else’s art or musical creation can only serve as your inspiration.”
