Film scoring has always been a long time passion of mine. The ability to compose music for a film, to enhance the emotional and intelectual message of a movie is something that really interests me. Lately, I have been exploring, reading, experimenting and immersing in film scoring. To dive more into film scoring I decided to write music for the Indie Film Music Contest. Here’s the soundtrack I created for the incredible short by Nick McLean.
Portuguese jazz bassist and composer André Carvalho is an active NYC freelancer whose works AllAboutJAzz described as “both in bounds and out of this world.” Nate Chinen of The New York Times dubbed Carvalho a bassist “you should get to know.” He’s played with Jazz stars Chris Cheek, Will Vinson, and Tommy Crane. And André’s performance credits range from the Colors Jazz Festival (Paris), the Cairo Jazz Festival, and Jazz Festival Ljubliana, to venues such as Blue Note (New York), Konzerthaus Berlin, and Casa da Música (Porto).
