Biography
Born in New York City, Jeremy Cavaterra spent his early life in New England before moving to Los Angeles, where he studied piano with Tania Agins and Robert Turner, as well as composition and theory with Mark Carlson. He returned to New York to study composition with Giampaolo Bracali at Manhattan School of Music. His music has been performed throughout the US, Europe, and the UK. He has received commissions for works from such soloists as Gustavo Díaz-Jerez and Robert deMaine, from orchestras such as The Young People's Symphony Orchestra, The Master Sinfonia, and The Mission Chamber Orchestra of San Jose, as well as from chamber ensembles such as Pacific Serenades, The Salastina Society, People Inside Electronics, and The Myriad Trio.

From 2010 to 2018, Cavaterra was Composer-in-Residence for The Salastina Music Society in Los Angeles. Beginning with Three Neruda Arias, premiered by soprano Elizabeth Futral, Salastina commissioned a total of twelve pieces from Cavaterra during his tenure, as well as fourteen arrangements, for various chamber combinations ranging from two to nine instruments.

Since 2018, Cavaterra has been Composer-in-Residence for Young People's Symphony Orchestra.

Cavaterra is currently completing a cello concerto for Robert deMaine, principal cellist of The Los Angeles Philharmonic, as well as a set of Fantasy-Études for pianist Gustavo Díaz-Jerez, the first of which was recently premiered on Virtual Reality Piano, the world's first VR classical music channel, to enthusiastic reviews.
