Born in Mississippi, Carrie Leigh Page composes music for chamber ensembles, orchestra, and electronic media, with a special emphasis on vocal writing. She has collaborated with dramatic artists, vocalists, and educators to create chamber operas both for young artists and young audiences, and she is an avid researcher in the areas of opera and music education. 

Current compositional projects include collaborative efforts to create new original works and arrangements for intermediate choirs and a book of etudes to introduce extended techniques to young pianists. Page is also working on commissions from mezzo-soprano Korin Kormick and pianist Denine LeBlanc. Her music has appeared on recordings released by the University of Louisville, including the 2005 Fresh Stuff CD and the (De)Constructions project with composer and bass clarinetist Brad Baumgardner. Page manages her own publishing through Dux Femina Facti Music.
