Trevor Jones

Trevor Jones (Composer) was raised in an entertainment environment (his family is involved in various aspects of theater, film, and television) in Cape Town, South Africa.  At the age of five he decided he wanted to compose music for films, an ambition he has fulfilled.  In 1967 he came to London to study on a scholarship at the Royal Academy of Music.  He worked for four years at the BBC as a music reviewer for radio and television, and in 1974 he went to York University, from which he was graduated with a Masters Degree in Film and Media Music.

Jones also studied at the National Film School, a three-year course of study in general filmmaking and film and sound technique.  He continued there until 1980 as composer-in-residence, and wrote the music for twenty-two student projects.  In 1981 he wrote the score for the Academy Award-winning short film The Dollar Bottom and another short film The Black Angel.  Jones has since created the sound tracks for the BFI production Brothers and Sisters and John Boorman's Excalibur.
