Composer/Arranger and guitarist Dave Hart

has been scoring commercials since 1987.

In that time he has worked with New York based agencies

Ogilvy & Mather, Euro RSCG, BBDO, and McCann

Erickson to name a few. He has scored spots for American Express,

Miller Beer, Maxwell House, Land Rover, Delta, Jaguar, MTV, Polaroid,

NASDAQ, The NBA and many more. He has received several awards for

his work including Addy's and New York Festivals Medals.

Dave has also scored many documentaries and independant films,

as well as numerous corporate films for companies

like Sony, Nortel, KPMG and SAP.

Dave began his music career at

the age of 10 as a soloist in professional

choirs, highlighted by his acceptance to the

New York City Opera Children's Choir.

At the same time Dave began to study guitar and went

on to pursue guitar as his major in college.

He attended Syracuse University for two years and studied

classical and jazz guitar performance under

guitarist Carlo Manobianco. Dave completed his study

at NYU as a Music Technology major and graduated

in 1987 with a Bachelor Of Music.

Dave feels much of his success as a composer

stems from his versatility. He enjoys writing in many styles

ranging from electronica to orchestral, as well as guitar driven styles

like rock and folk. "I love the challenge of writing in different genres.

Finding what gives them their unique sounds,

rhythms and harmonies. Recreating them is something

I enjoy and feel I do well"

Dave is also writing and recording original songs

as well as performing with his 16 year old daughter Emma,

a talented violinist. (www.emmahartmusic.com) A solo cd project

as well as a cd with Emma are in the works to be

released in the near future.
