Composition

"Ben's orchestration creates interest and movement, exploiting all that is good in harmony and rubato. These two elements combined, enthralled the audience... and we await the next composition by Benjamin Brannelly with eager anticipation."

As a composer, I draw heavily from the music of Hans Zimmer, Carter Burwell and David Arnold.

I specialise in film composition and I love to blend live, orchestral and acoustic instruments with electronic and synthetic sounds.

I play piano and am able to write lyrics alongside my drumming to keep my musicality as fine tuned as I possibly can.

My composition ‘Forget Me (Fly Away)’ was rearranged and performed at The Palace Theatre, Redditch in July 2017 and my most recent piece was a solo for drum kit entitled ‘Shufflet’ which I performed live at my Artist Showcase - License to Groove in 2017.

I am always looking for new projects to take on, so if you need something composing then feel free to contact me.
