Since beginning her musical career as a cellist, Samantha Sack has been exploring the full range of musical expressions. Performing was only the beginning of her journey, as she quickly understood the greatest expression of music was creation. After receiving private composition lessons with Mara Gibson in secondary school, Samantha entered Missouri State University under the John Prescott Composition Scholarship and the Claude T. Smith Composition Scholarship. Graduating with a Bachelor of Music Composition further lead her to Dublin, Ireland, to earn a Master of Arts in Scoring for Film and Visual Media from Dublin Institute of Technology. Her studies have led to writing for fellow musicians all around the world. Just a few of such pieces include “Oscuro Fantasia” (accordionist Alessandro Ambrosi), “Under the Sun” (Missouri State Chamber Orchestra), and “My Persephone” (Bulgarian National Radio Orchestra). She also collaborates with international filmmakers, scoring films such as Venice Biennale Cinema entry "Fall of the Ibis King" and Student Academy Award Semi-Finalist "The Small Makings of a Storm" Samantha looks to create stories through her music. Worlds for the listener to be surrounded by and get lost in as they listen to the colors flow and morph around them. Her philosophy is music is never just for its own sake. Every piece is conceived from an experience or perception and will take on a changed or entirely new meaning for those listening to it. Whether in the concert hall or on the screen, she hopes to give the audience a space to dream and feel.…Since beginning her musical career as a cellist, Samantha Sack has been exploring the full range of musical expressions.
