Biography
Anthony Strilko (1931-2000) was a noted American composer who worked primarily with song cycles and sacred music. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Strilko moved to Manhattan in his teens to attend the Juilliard School of Music, where he eventually earned degrees in composition. He was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship which enabled him to attend the Paris Conservatory. While in Paris, he studied with Darius Milhaud. Strilko received many awards in his youth, including a Fromm Foundation Award, an Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge Prize, and the Joseph H. Bearns Prize from Columbia University. In a New York Times survey of prominent composers in 1957, Strilko was declared a "young hopeful." Over the course of his career, he composed hundreds of works, mainly consisting of chamber music, as well as sacred and secular choral works. In addition to composing, Strilko directed Apollo Music Services, a music preparation company that provided editing and copyist services for composers. His clients included Leonard Bernstein, Elliot Carter, and David Diamond. He was also the musical coordinator to the Rebekah Harkness Foundation, William Schuman, and the Martha Graham Dance Company. Strilko was interested in the spiritualist movement, and composed several works for spiritualist Christian churches.
