Here he learned to play the tuba in the school band alongside his profession as a typesetter. After his military service, he began working as a copyist at the music publisher 'Ricordi'. He also attended the music high school in the evenings, where he received piano and violin lessons in addition to basic musical training. Barazzetti studied composition at the Conservatorio di Musica 'Giuseppe VERDI' di Milano and privately with the well-known maestro Armando SEPPILLI (1860-1931), with whom he was very closely associated. Studied organ with Maestro CHIESA.
Numerous works of his chamber music were performed particularly in Italy, but also in Switzerland, France, Sweden, Canada, Australia, Germany and South America and broadcast by radio.
