Known for his emotionally dynamic and powerfully melodic writing, award-winning film, television and video game composer Inon Zur signs to Sony Music Masterworks in anticipation of releasing new original music.
Classically trained with a flair for powerful, melodic orchestral writing, Inon Zur's rich portfolio spans across film, television and video games. Today's announcement arrives just days ahead of the November 14th release of his score for Fallout 76, the latest instalment in the critically-acclaimed Fallout video game franchise. Later this year, Zur is also set to release his forthcoming score for The Elder Scrolls: Blades, the first mobile instalment of hugely popular The Elder Scrolls video game franchise.
Making a name for himself within the world of epic action/adventure games and ethereal fantasy franchises, Zur's scoring work for Bethesda Games Studios' hugely-popular Fallout series, namely the Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 instalments, have amassed millions of fans, two BAFTA Award nominations and nods from The PlayStation Awards, The Game Awards, Spike TV, FACT Magazine, Paste, Classic FM and more. Zur's lengthy catalogue of scores also include multiple entries in the Prince Of Persia series, THE Lord Of The Rings: The War In The North, Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age 2. Zur's music has been performed in concerts across the globe by world-class orchestras including the London Philharmonic Orchestra, and Zur himself has collaborated with international recording artists including Florence + The Machine and Idan Raichel.
"I am so excited to share this new chapter of my musical journey." Says Inon Zur "Throughout the years, I have been yearning to create original content dedicated as a tribute to all my fans and music lovers, and of course, the video game players around the world! I am so thankful for the collaboration with Sony Masterworks; their deep understanding and passionate support of my forthcoming project has helped me immensely throughout the creative process. I really hope the fans will enjoy what's to come as much as I have in creating it!"
"Inon's diverse list of credits and accolades in the field of film, TV, and video game composing truly made him an obvious choice to bring into Masterworks' roster. It is with the utmost pleasure that I welcome him to our family and announce our involvement in the latest stage of his career," says Mark Cavell, Senior Vice-President of Sony Music Masterworks.
