Composer Jason Solowsky is a multifaceted storyteller of remarkable versatility and singularity of voice. His scores imbue dozens of tales told upon the silver screen with a perfect balance of aesthetic sensibilities, and span a variety of film genres to include comedy, drama, horror, mystery, science fiction, adventure, romance as well as others.
Highlights of Solowsky's recent successes have included full scores for American Bandits: Frank and Jesse James starring Peter Fonda, Turbulent Skies starring Casper Van Dien, Brad Dourif and Nicole Eggert, Terror Inside starring Corey Feldman, Unemployed and What Up? starring Kadeem Hardison, with the latter two released by Lions Gate Films. Solowsky also wrote music for the Sony Pictures release American Crude which stars Rob Schneider, Ron Livingston, Michael Clarke Dunkin and John C. McGinley.
Solowsky's flexibility in adapting to various projects and scales has yielded wonderful collaborations with respected directors such as Michael Rissi (Edgar Allan Poe's Annabel Lee), Wes Sullivan (Nightbeasts starring Zach Gilligan), Keith Holland (Cage Free starring Dee Wallace), Ted Lange (For Love of Amy) Andrea Olabarría (Rough Winds), K. Raj Srivastava (L.A. Hit), Jim Van Houten (Galatea), Jason Kartalian (Driller) and Derek Maki (award-winning family film, Instant Dads). Solowsky also contributed to The Life In A Day, the directorial film debut of Joseph Mazzello (Jurassic Park, The River Wild, Simon Birch).
Solowsky was recognized for his contribution to the highly-acclaimed, No One Ever Wins: Lebanon in the Summer of Hezbollah written and produced by journalist Krisztian K. Orban, an illustrative study of the consequences brought on by the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict.
Hailing from a rich and diverse cultural background, Solowsky is well-versed in performance art, particularly the instrumental intricacies of guitar, piano and vocal repertoire. As a skilled singer, Solowsky was chosen as a back-up singer for the world famous performer Barbra Streisand during her performance at the 53rd Annual Prime-Time Emmy Awards Show. Together with his lifelong friend, singer-songwriter Bob Coburn, Solowsky has recorded dozens of guitar instrumental works.
During the composer's studies at the prestigious University of Southern California (USC) Film Scoring Program in Los Angeles, California, then headed by the renowned Walt Disney Studios composer, Buddy Baker, he was privileged to have worked under prolific legends of the film score world, to include Christopher Young (Spiderman 3, The Grudge, Runaway Jury, The Shipping News), Elmer Bernstein (The Magnificent Seven, Ghostbusters, To Kill A Mockingbird, The Ten Commandments), David Raksin (Laura, Forever Amber, The Bad and The Beautiful), David Bell (Star Trek: Enterprise, Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), Joe Harnell (The Incredible Hulk, V), Jack Smalley, David Spear and George Burt.
A native of Boston, Massachusetts, Jason Solowsky began his musical studies at the keyboard at the age of five, later graduating from the Berklee College of Music with a dual degree in film scoring and composition. He is a descendant of legendary conductor and composer, Leonard Bernstein, whom he credits as a major cultural influence over his work.
“Working with filmmakers is a constant learning experience for me, and no two work exactly the same. I enjoy the challenge of communicating in both the language of film and music. The most important thing I do is to get the director’s musical vision on the screen, and I try many different ways to talk about music with them. Often, instead of speaking in music terms, I find it most valuable to speak about music in terms of color, moods, feelings and emotions."
“My approach to film scoring is based on finding a certain mood or emotion in a scene, and supporting it. When it’s done right, the film will take on a whole new life of it’s own. It’s a very exciting moment when this happens, and it’s especially rewarding when a filmmaker sees the full potential of their film layered with my music.”
