Film composer Sean Schafer Hennessy is one of America's most
gifted composer/instrumentalists and remains a brilliant protégé of the renowned
Wynton Marsalis. Beginning his trumpet studies at age ten, Sean made
his concerto debut three years later with the Colorado Symphony. Sean has performed a solo recital at Carnegie Hall, appeared
as a guest soloist at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing
Arts, and moved audiences with his appearance on the Public Radio
International's show "From the Top".
Sean graduated from
Northwestern University School of Music and completed
USC's graduate program for Film Scoring and Motion Pictures & TV. As a trumpet soloist of
deep essence, much of his current music for film contains beautiful
heartfelt melodies, light jesting humor in comedy,
riveting/anticipating suspense in his dramas, as well as both spirited
and touching jazz in his jazz scores. His orchestrations are rich,
powerful, and dramatic. Continuing to conduct and perform in his own
works, Sean touches his audience both through his film music
compositions and his performances, with unique musicality and
soul.
