Composer David Metzger sits down for a brand new Film.Music.Media conversation!
Dave is an industry legend who has built an incredible body of work as a composer, orchestrator and arranger. Besides his incredible body of work as a composer, he's also been composers' and songwriters' secret weapon when it comes to orchestration and arranging.
Composers like Mark Mancina, John Powell and Henry Jackman have relied on Dave's skills to bring their music to life. And without Dave, the songs of Frozen, Moana, Spirited and Disenchanted wouldn't have the orchestral colors that they do.
We dive into Dave's gorgeous score to Disney's Wish, and how he approached scoring his first feature since Brother Bear 2. Learn how Dave got hired on the project, and how he approached bringing the world of Wish to life.
Dave also shares his path to becoming a composer, and how the biggest breaks in his career came when he was ready to give up hope. We talk about his big break working on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, how he formed a lasting creative relationship with Mark Mancina to become an essential part of his team, and much more!
