Amelia Warner

Neo-classical composer Amelia Warner is known for stunning orchestral scores, infused with electronic elements. She is the recipient of several awards, including Breakthrough Composer of The Year at the International Film Music Critics Association Awards, plus nominations at the World Soundtrack Awards and ASCAP Composers’ Choice Awards. Growing up in Notting Hill, Warner would constantly invent melodies on the piano, going on to produce her first proper composition aged 15. Her first career was as an actress – following in her mother Annette Ekblom’s footsteps – but she quickly realised she was on the wrong side of the storytelling process. Warner’s debut scoring project was the British short Mam, which won several awards on the film circuit and led to her first feature film composition for 2016’s Mum’s List, starring Rafe Spall and Emilia Fox. In 2018, she created an otherworldly score for the film Mary Shelley, directed by Haifaa al-Mansour and starring Elle Fanning. Warner also scored John Patrick Shanley’s Wild Mountain Thyme, featuring the original song ‘I’ll Be Singing’, co-written by Warner and Shanley and performed by Sinead O’Connor. In 2022, she wrote a contemporary classical score for the period romantic comedy Mr. Malcolm’s List. Warner has also released three solo classical EPs, all of which reached #1 on the iTunes classical album charts.
