Dr Trevor Jones’ professional musical contribution began way back in 1970 and he has, over the past five decades, delivered a wealth of captivating compositions.

Born and raised in District Six, Jones has quite simply and very actively influenced cinema and television soundtracks that have touched the lives of hundreds-of-millions of people.

Respected as one of the Top Five original music score composers in the world, Jones is responsible for scoring over 120 wide-ranging blockbuster film and television productions, including the likes of Notting Hill, Angel Heart, and The Last of the Mohicans and In the Name of the Father.



Amongst a plethora of accolades, Jones has also had the pleasure of conducting the London Symphony orchestra, The London Philharmonic Orchestra, The Academy of St. Martins in the Fields, The RTVE Symphony Orchestra of Spain, The Greek National Radio Symphony Orchestra, and session orchestras in Los Angeles, New York, London and Paris in the recording of his soundtrack music.

Artists the calibre of the late David Bowie, Sting, U2, Sinead O'Connor, Charlotte Church, Britney Spears and Elvis Costello have all benefited from his mastery too.
