Evan Berndt aka Van Ber is a unique force in new music. As a composer, Van Ber’s experimental use of modern recording techniques mixed with his training as a classical musician informs his creation of uniquely orchestrated works for dance, film, TV, galleries and brands such as Oakley, Beacon, and Black Diamond. He most recently scored for the ten episode TV show “Dandyland” hosted by Dandy which premiered September 2024.
I would check out my bespoke compositions for Oakley’s “Be Who You are Campaign” where I worked closely with the client, athletes and videographer to achieve a unique sound for British Columbia’s “Sea to Sky” athletes.
