For 10 years HBarnes Websites has produced creative and admired websites for individuals and companies in the creative industries including classical, jazz and commercial music, TV, fashion and art.

HBarnes (previously "HBrougham") was established by Henrietta Barnes in 1999. After graduating in music and gaining experience in commercial PR and marketing companies, she formed an Artists Management company, representing performers and composers and working as a concert manager. Joining United Music Publishers in 1994 she became Promotion Manager and negotiated commissions for leading composers of the day, as well as helping develop careers of younger artists. Whilst working on an MA in musicology at Huddersfield University, she was a co-editor of the acclaimed publication "Uncommon Ground; The Music of Michael Finnissy" with Christopher Fox and Ian Pace.

Working on the UMP website lead to designing sites for friends and subsequently other individuals and companies. As well as mastering new technologies on the job, Henrietta studied multimedia at WKC in London from 2003 - 04 completing courses in flash, director, photoshop, html and sound and in 2006/7 mastered advanced scripting techniques - PHP/MySQL- which opens the way to producing the most dynamic and integrated sites yet.
