Helmut Barbe (28 December 1927 in Halle - 18 April 2021) was a German composer.[1]

Barbe studied at the Berlin School of Church Music [de] (Berliner Kirchenmusikschule) where he was taught by Gottfried Grote and Ernst Pepping. Between 1952 and 1975 he was the Cantor at the church St. Nikolai [de] in Berlin's Spandau quarter. After this he took a post as a professor at the Berlin University of the Arts in what was at that time West Berlin.

In 1956 Barbe premiered his musical "Hallelujah Billy"[2] at the German Evangelical Church Assembly in Frankfurt am Main. This led commentators to identify him as a pioneer of contemporary worship music, in German Neues Geistliches Lied (NGL, literally: new spiritual song).[3]
