Murray Gold

Referred to as the U.K.’s response to Keep McCreary, Murray Silver is among the most effective TV composers from the last 10 years. Blessed in Portsmouth in 1969, Silver began playing the piano at age six, and in his teenagers he organized for high-school brass ensembles. After learning Background at Cambridge School, he done a theater creation on the Edinburgh Celebration and became a scriptwriter for Route 5 before his initial score of the BBC-TV version of Vanity Good released his composing profession. A normal stalwart of article writer Russell T. Davies, Silver supplied the soundtracks for Queer as Folk and Casanova, and in 2005 he became the musical movie director from the revamped Doctor Who, developing a brand-new arrangement because of its iconic theme tune. Since that time, five compilation albums offering the music for the sci-fi series have already been released. Featuring vocal efforts from soprano Melanie Pappenheim as well as the Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon, the series have grown to be the biggest-selling Television soundtracks within the U.K. This year 2010 he performed on the Proms and organized and orchestrated two live Doctor Who concerts at Cardiff’s Millennium Center and London’s Royal Albert Hall. Silver in addition has scored several films, including Death in a Funeral and Alien Autopsy, and composed the soundtrack to Doctor Who spinoffs Torchwood as well as the Sarah Jane Travels.
