Hi, I’m Daniel Chant-Burgess, a London-based film composer and orchestrator. I combine a love of storytelling with a keen ear for orchestration, and contemporary production for screen. I began my career at Pinewood Studios as Assistant Composer to Academy Award-nominated Patrick Doyle (Thor, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Brave), contributing to projects across film and television such as the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series Big Mouth. I've contributed music and orchestrations to globally released films and series such as CNN's Patagonia - Life On The Edge Of The World, and Home Education. My music can be heard internationally through TV shows such as The Apprentice, Big Cats, Celebrity Sabotage, Married At First Sight, Bear Grylls, Wonders of the Frozen South, and Celebrity Race Across The World. I studied at the Royal College of Music, achieving a Master's Degree with Distinction in Composition, and have since returned to offer a masterclass and workshops.
