Abel Korzeniowski

Abel Korzeniowski is a new and dynamic force in film scoring, with a short but already impressive CV. Korzenioski was born in Poland and studied under experimental composer Krzysztof Penderecki. After scoring several Polish films, Korzenioski got his big break in Hollywood with his emotional and tender score for A Single Man. Madonna's W.E. features a similarly expressive score. He also wrote a thunderous, adventurous score for the animated film Battle for Terra and a glittering, Renaissance-flavored soundtrack for Copernicus' Star. His score for Romeo and Juliet was one of the best of the year, a sumptuous, romantic masterpiece written in his inimitable style. Korzeniowski's career is only getting started, and he deserves continued success.
