JURGEN BECK-Composer, musician

German born composer Jurgen Beck began his musical journey early in his life. His passion and interest in music was directed toward training on the trumpet (Fluegelhorn), while at the same time picking up other instruments such as guitar, piano, and bass. His passion for harmonic structure stems from his early years of musical training and playing in a brass choir in Germany.

Growing up in a country that has provided some of the most renowned composers in history, his love for music found further expression when he started writing all songs and lyrics for his band that went on to garner a growing following and essentially resulted in a recording contract and concert tours.Having received a full scholarship, he moved to the USA in 1987 to continue his  music studies at a college in Dallas, Texas. His love for film music essentially resulted in a natural transition from writing and producing music to writing for film. Recognizing the unique aspects of composing for film, he studied with renowned composer Leon Willett, who has been instrumental in furthering his understanding of harmony and musical structure. He also studied writing for orchestral instruments with Stephen Hill and Steven Scott Smalley.

Jurgen is a creative composer who loves to explore the multi-faceted aspects of music and how it affects the listener.
