About the ArtistsNICHOLAS HOOPER composer NICHOLAS BUC conductor
Nicholas
Hooper is one of
Europe’s leading
composers,
having written
and produced
music for over 250
films, dramas and
documentaries
since 1990. He
has developed
a reputation for
producing music
that is original,
inspiring and
always colourful.
His scores have
received several
major accolades.
In 2004 he won
the BAFTA for
Best Original Score for The Young Visiters as well as being nominated
for State of Play in the same year. Nicholas was nominated for a 2006
BAFTA for his score to The Girl In The Café, and prior to this was BAFTA
nominated for The Way We Live Now. In 1998 he won the coveted Golden
Panda Award for Land of the Tiger, a major BBC documentary series
on India. The following year he won again (having been nominated for
three separate scores), making him the first composer to win the award
consecutively. He has received many other accolades for his feature
films including the period feature The Heart Of Me, starring Helena
Bonham Carter and Olivia Williams, and The Tichbourne Claimant (a quote
from Variety: “Nicholas Hooper’s alert symphonic score rates a major
bow, adding shape and atmosphere to the labyrinthine tale”).
Nicholas scored Philip Martin’s feature, Einstein and Eddington, starring
David Tennant as Sir Arthur Eddington and Andy Serkis as Albert Einstein
for Company Pictures/HBO, and Belonging for BBC Wales Drama. He also
scored Enid Blyton for Carnival/BBC, Mo Mowlam for C4, and Yes Virginia,
a CBS animated film for Christmas 2009.
Nicholas has received great critical acclaim for his stunning scores to
both Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix™ for Warner Bros, (“Let
there be no doubt – Hooper’s reputation is cemented with this work, and
his career just shifted gears.” Daniel Champion, Music from the Movies,
July 2007), and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, nominated for a
2010 Grammy for Best Film Score. He most recently completed recording
two wonderful scores to the Walt Disney Pictures feature releases,
African Cats and Chimpanzee.
