For filmmakers, producers & music supervisors
Music crafted
to picture.
The pacing. The mood.
The story.
I compose and craft music for edited film, television, and commercial projects. Working to the picture, I shape the music around each scene’s pacing, mood, and story, so it feels integral to the edit.
I bring decades of composing, orchestration, and studio experience to each project. Have an edit or spot in mind? Let’s discuss the project and the music it needs.

About Adam
A lifetime
in music.
Studies in music theory, composition, and orchestration. Decades of recording, performance, and music licensing.
Music has been part of my life since childhood. For nearly five decades, I’ve composed and performed while continuing to study music, including theory, composition, and orchestration. My work has taken me to Hollywood Music Workshops and Los Angeles, where I connected with composers in the film industry.
Alongside my surgical career, I built a recording studio and licensed music for film and television, including additional music for Sharknado 6. Now retired from surgery, I’m giving music my full-time attention—as a composer and pianist—and bringing the work I’ve developed over a lifetime to new audiences.
Over the years, I’ve met many of the film composers whose work has inspired me at workshops and industry events.
