About Ben

Ben is a versatile composer and musician who is as equally adept at scoring large-scale orchestral works, as he is working with sound design and synthesis.  Ben started his career as a classically trained pianist, receiving his formal training at Trinity College of Music, London and the Franz Liszt Academy of Music, Budapest.  He has vast experience working as both a composer and performer.  From writing and orchestrating pop songs to performing concerti by composers such as Beethoven and Rachmaninov, Ben’s vast experience in the industry working across all genres gives him a unique edge with his composition.  

 

Ben is working as Composing Assistant to Hollywood film composer, Harry Gregson-Williams. He has credited for writing music for the forthcoming Ridley Scott blockbuster, Gladiator II.  He has also written music for Meg 2: The Trench and is currently writing for the forthcoming season of The Apprentice in the UK. In addition, Ben is working with Harry on 'Scored By Harry Gregson-Williams' with Universal Production Music. - a series of albums focused on a range of themes and moods; from blockbuster orchestrations to dark pulsing underscore. 

Ben recently released an album of solo piano music with GLU Music at APM.  He is also an experienced session pianist and he recently collaborated with British composer Tom Howe (The Great British Bake off, Ted Lasso) on the BBC's The Mating Game, narrated by Sir David Attenborough.  Listen to examples here, here and here. 

 

Ben is also collaborating with the founder of Black Sabbath, Tony Iommi.  He orchestrated Tony's most recent release Deified.

In a recent collaboration with Solid State Logic Ben recorded one of his original compositions for the release of two of their fantastic new products.  Ben is also a Sequential Artist and he recently composed two original pieces of music which showcase the iconic Prophet 10 synthesizer following its hotly anticipated relaunch.
