Trevor Jones is one of Britain's most prolific and versatile film and television composers and a former student at the University of York. He wrote his first film score for ‘Excalibur' in 1979 and has received numerous awards for films such as ‘In the Name of the Father' and ‘Arachnaphobia.'
The lecture, entitled ‘In Conversation,' is the Third Performing Rights Society John Lennon Popular Music Event. Trevor Jones will discuss his works with Miguel Mera, director of the Royal College of Music's Masters Course in Composition for Screen.
Dr Tony Myatt, Director of Music Technology Research said: ‘It's a great opportunity for students and members of the local community to connect with a significant and successful film composer, and gain insight into his career and the role of a composer working at the highest level in the movie industry.'
