Guest: Daniel Alcheh – Film Composer

Daniel Alcheh is a Hollywood-based film and television composer. Born in Israel, Daniel Alcheh began playing the piano at age six, and was seriously pursuing the path of a composer by his teens. Fostered by the biggest names in Israeli contemporary music, he studied composition, conducting and orchestration. Alcheh became one of the youngest-ever members of the Israeli Composers League (the Israeli chapter of the ISCM) where he served as a board member and panel judge, and while still in his early 20s, was awarded the league's Klon Prize for Composition. He completed both his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in composition at the music academy at Tel-Aviv University. His concert music is published by IMC (Israeli Music Center), and it continues to be premiered and performed throughout the world. While still an undergraduate, Alcheh began scoring films and animation. In 2001, his professor Yosef Bardanashvili, one of Israel’s most renowned and prolific composers, would bring him aboard as a soundtrack producer for Dover Kosashvili's feature film Late Marriage: the highest-grossing Israeli film of the decade, one of Entertainment Weekly's Ten Best Films of 2002 and Newsweek's Top 15 Films of 2002. His music has been licensed by National Geographic, PBS, BET and The History Channel . You can email your questions to 123FilmEasy@Gmail.com and we'll answer them "LIVE ON AIR."
