About Eugene Butler

Eugene Butler (1935-2024) was a highly respected and prolific American composer, conductor, educator, and church musician. He established himself as a significant figure in the music world, particularly recognized for his contributions to sacred choral music, a genre in which he was considered one of the most influential American composers of the late twentieth century. His extensive body of work and dedication to music education left a lasting impact on choral performance and church music throughout the English-speaking world.

Dr. Butler earned a Bachelor of Music Education from Oklahoma University, a Master of Sacred Music from Union Theological Seminary in New York, and a Doctor of Musical Arts in Composition from the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
He was a consistent recipient of honors, including Kansas "Composer of the Year" and the prestigious ASCAP Standard Music Panel Award every year since 1972.
With over 750 published compositions across 47 publishing houses, and some sources citing over 1000 with 50 publishers, Butler amassed an exceptionally large and widely performed catalog.
A highlight of his career was the performance of his choral-orchestral cantata "Emmanuel" at Carnegie Hall in New York City in 2006.

Eugene Butler's sheet music is an excellent choice for a wide range of performers, particularly church choirs, school ensembles, and civic choral groups. His compositions cater to various skill levels, offering accessible yet musically rewarding experiences for both amateur and more advanced singers and musicians. Performing his music allows ensembles to engage with thoughtfully crafted pieces that are both liturgically appropriate and harmonically rich, providing a fulfilling musical journey and contributing to the vibrant tradition of sacred and educational choral literature.
