Marco Beltrami  Download printable version

Website: http://www.MarcoBeltrami.com

Upon completing undergraduate study at Brown University, Marco Beltrami entered the Yale School of Music on a scholarship. His pursuit of music composition then lead him to Venice for a period of study with the Italian master, Luigi Nono and then finally to Los Angeles to undertake a fellowship with Academy Award-winning composer, Jerry Goldsmith.

Shortly after arriving in Los Angeles, Marco landed Wes Cravenss Scream embarking on what would become the wildly successful terror trilogy. In his approach to scoring the film, he threw away conventional horror music clichés. Instead, he likened the film to a western and calling upon the influences of his idol Ennio Morricone went on to write one of the most unexpected and imaginative scores in recent memory. The score would gather much attention for the young composer and the sound would become Scream's signature. Wes Craven would remark in the liner notes of the last soundtrack, "Without Marco's genius, Scream would have been little more than a whisper."

After Scream, Marco went on to write his critically acclaimed score for Guillermo Del Toro's Mimic bringing him to the attention of the entire film music industry. Subsequently, his resume has expanded to include films ranging from epic drama to dark comedy, working with some of the most recognizable names in the industry such as Robert Rodriguez, Jonathan Mostow, Lee Tamahori, Luis Mandoki, John Dahl, Jodie Foster, Tommy Lee Jones, David E. Kelly and Goth rocker Marilyn Manson.
