Richard Barbieri Biography
Richard Barbieri is one of the most popular and richest Composer who was born on November 30, 1957 in London, England, United Kingdom. He began a long musical partnership with Steve Jansen, a Japanese colleague, in 1984. Six albums have been produced together under the name Jansen / Barbieri.
In late 1989, the members of Japan (minus guitarist Rob Dean) reunited under the name Rain Tree Crow to make new recordings for Virgin. This resulted in a single eponymous album which extended the work of late Japan and the solo/collective work of all four members, featuring a variety of influences from pop to art rock, jazz, ambient and world music. Other contributors to the album included Bill Nelson. Rain Tree Crow charted in 1991 in the UK Top 25 and brought critical acclaim.
The next work by Jansen, Barbieri and Karn was as the rhythm section for British art-pop band No-Man, who recruited them for a 1992 UK tour and for recordings which later appeared on the Loveblows & Lovecries album and on the “Painting Paradise” and “Sweetheart Raw” EPs (one of these EP pieces, the 20-plus-minute “Heaven Taste”, later appeared on the album of the same name). This marked Barbieri’s first work with Steven Wilson, with whom he would then go on to work in Porcupine Tree.
Japan recorded five studio albums, culminating with Tin Drum, which remained in the UK Albums Chart for one year. They were one the most popular chart acts in Europe and Asia in 1982. After a year-long world tour, the band broke up in December 1982.
Richard Barbieri produced En plats i solen, a 1982 album by Lustans Lakejer, a Japanese-influenced Swedish band. He performed the entire album with them during a 2017 tour of Sweden.
After the break-up of Japan, Barbieri continued his association with David Sylvian, playing on the latter’s early solo albums (and on the 1988 In Praise Of Shamans tour). During this time he worked alongside such other innovators as Holger Czukay, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Robert Fripp.

In late 1993, Barbieri joined the progressive rock band Porcupine Tree (having previously played as a guest performer on the album Up the Downstair). The band released eight studio albums to increasingly greater chart success, and toured in support of many of them. Initially employing many aspects of psychedelic rock, they later transitioned to a more pop-oriented style before settling on progressive metal. Their first major success was the album In Absentia, which enjoyed chart success around Europe with sales of over 120,000. The following studio albums Deadwing and Fear of a Blank Planet met even greater success, charting highly worldwide. Increased radio airtime and favourable mainstream magazine reviews and interviews further increased their public exposure. The band transitioned somewhat away from metal with their last album, The Incident, with leader Steven Wilson expressing a desire to enter a different genre. The band members are currently concentrating on solo projects and have no immediate plans to work together in the future.
Richard Barbieri collaborated with Steve Hogarth on the album Not The Weapon But The Hand, which was released by Kscope Records in 2012, but a proposed tour was cancelled for financial issues. Barbieri wrote the music and Hogarth provided the lyrics for the album.
