Composer Trevor Kowalski works in geographies of memory and hope to write heart-felt, colorful pieces and dynamic soundtracks.

From a luminous new generation of composers, Trevor embraces a dreamlike, colorful approach inspired by video game melody, vibrant classical, and a deep love of nature. Trevor is EMMY-nominated and has written music for numerous productions. Eclectic artists like Thelonious Monk, John Denver, and the melodic sense of Nintendo inspire his music. Major influences include Camille Saint-Saëns, Jennifer Higdon, and John Barry.

Distinctly shaped by the Adirondack Mountains and enthralled with music from a young age, Trevor started playing piano at 6 and writing fragments of melodies. Growing up, he played piano on the street and in bars between jobs. He studied at Boston University with the influential Ketty Nez, where he was the first freshman to win the orchestra's composition contest, and at the Royal College of Music in London where he performed under conductor Bernard Haitink. He also plays french horn. Trevor has worked with traditional Native musicians in awarded co-soundtracks. Trevor gained experience at composer Hans Zimmer's studio.
