Barbara Harbach is a versatile figure, active as a composer, organist, harpsichordist, and educator. She is also noted as an editor, founding the journal Women of Note and publishing works by neglected composers. Among Harbach's most notable works is One of Ours -- A Cather Symphony, inspired by novelist Willa Cather: her 2009 opera O Pioneers! is also based on Cather's writings. Harbach's recording catalog stretches back to the late '80s, when she issued the first of a series of albums devoted to 20th century harpsichord music. Recordings of Harbach's music have grown consistently more numerous, and The Music of Barbara Harbach, Vol. 1, earned the Recording of the Year from MusicWeb International and a Critic's Choice designation from the American Record Guide. By 2022, more than 60 recordings featured Harbach, either as composer or performer, and that year, Music of Barbara Harbach, Vol. 15: Orchestral Music VI appeared.
