Biography

Danny Bensi is a contemporary film composer and string player living in Los Angeles since 2018. He grew up learning the cello in Denmark, UK, Germany and Italy before arriving in the US to study music at Northwestern University. Teaming up in 2011 with his long time friend and band-mate Saunder Jurriaans, the two formed a prolific film scoring duo. Their film scores are known for bold unpredictability, uniqueness, and surprising timbres. Drawing from modern classical styles, their compositions are filled with atypical orchestrations, sensuous melodies, and visceral soundscapes.
