Winner of the 2011 Royal Television Society Award for Best Television Score for Garrow’s Law, Edmund is now one of the most respected and in demand score composers working in UK Film and TV. Renowned for his artful command of melody and harmony as well as form and shape, Ed has written music for many notable film and television dramas and is now one of the most in-demand composers in this country, equally at home with contemporary, symphonic, and intimate scores. His best work has combined to create a thrilling and uniquely dramatic style. With an innate ability to strike at the heart of a piece, Ed employs all of his musical virtuosity and powerful command of compositional technique to wonderfully evoke the characters, narrative and form at the centre of each given piece. Always enjoyable to work with, and with a highly intelligent command of musical composition, combined with unerring 'cool' and musical virtuosity; with Ed anything can be made possible.
He most recently completed the music for ABC America's international primetime show, Combat Hospital, and Sally Head Production's What To Do When Someone Dies starring Anna Friel. Ed scored Mistresses (Series 1 & 2), for Ecosse Films, but is probably most noted for his dynamic and driven scores for Ashes To Ashes, the highly anticipated follow up series to the BBC's wildly successful Life On Mars, series 1 and 2. Ed scored Survivors (Series 1 & 2), a remake of the classic and post-apocalyptic 1970's BBC drama. He was then asked to score Yellowstone for BBC2, a series exploring the major ecosystems in the Yellowstone National Park, for which he created a wildly evocative and epic soundtrack that went on to win a Royal Television Society Craft and Design Award 2009 for Best Original Score. Edmund most recently completed the music for Come Rain Come Shine, starring Alison Steadman for ITV, and the tense thriller Case Sensitive (Point Of Rescue) starring Olivia Williams, for Hat Trick Productions.
Ed composed a dark, contemporary and epic score to the feature Revelation for Romulus Films and following on from this, was talked about as one of the most innovative and influential composers of his generation. He scored the horror feature The Dark for Impact Pictures/Universal/Constantin, True North for Ariel and BBC Films, The Waiting Room for Bright Pictures starring Anne Marie Duff, and Diary Of A Nobody, written by Andrew Davies for Clerkenwell Films/BBC and starring Hugh Bonneville.
A highly experienced composer, performer and producer, Ed has always lived and breathed music. His ambition from day one has been to write score for film. He went from chorister at Hampton Court Palace at six to head chorister at Windsor Castle, which lead to him winning a music scholarship to Charterhouse School and subsequently a double music scholarship (violin & piano) at the Royal College of Music, gaining a first class performers degree as well as a Countess of Munster Scholarship to study in New York & Japan. He then became the youngest player in the London Philharmonic Orchestra and went on to play with the London Symphony Orchestra, BBC Symphony, Chicago Symphony, Philharmonia, & the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Whilst performing with these world-class orchestras, Ed played on the scores to Basic Instinct & The English Patient and began to realise his life long ambition of working in film score. He then began orchestrating for several Hollywood composers on films such as Desperate Measures, Dark City, Merlin & Dangerous Beauty whilst at the same time enjoying parallel successes as musical director for such artists as, Madonna, Puff Daddy and George Martin.
Edmund has gone on to become one of the most recognised, in demand, and highly respected score composers of his generation.
