Ryan Powell Shore (born December 29, 1974 in Toronto , Ontario , Canada ) is a Canadian composer and nephew of Oscar-winning film composer Howard Shore .

Life

After Ryan Shore began learning the saxophone at the age of eleven, he studied music intensively in the following years, attended music summer camps, learned other instruments such as clarinet , flute and piano , and then studied music at the Berklee College of Music . Before he graduated there in 1996, he studied each of these instruments intensively and came up with the idea that you don't need a degree in order to be able to play well, which is why he concentrated more on film composition. And that is exactly what earned him his first job, because his uncle, Howard Shore, offered him a job with him in New York City immediately after graduating , where he thoroughly honed his composing skills.

Before he moved to Los Angeles in 2004 to devote himself more intensively to film composition, he was already composing in New York for various Broadway shows, concerts and CDs by some musicians. After composing Couchgeflüster - The First Therapeutic Love Comedy , Numb and Mega Monster Movie for several feature films, he received a Grammy Award nomination for his composition The Shrine in 2012 .
