Biography

Christian Henson found his way into film composition from early beginnings in the UK Drum & Bass, Breakbeat and Pop scene of the 1990s working with the likes of LTJ Bukem, The Freestylers, Scott Walker & Roy Ayers. Through writing for over 50 hit, and cult TV series including "Top Gear" and "Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps" whilst programming for and assisting a number of film composers including Anne Dudley, Harry & Rupert Gregson Williams, Dario Marianelli and Patrick Doyle. Since his debuts with Les Fils Du Vent and Chasing Liberty in 2004 (which earned Christian a Best Newcomer nomination at that year's "World Soundtrack Awards"), Christian has used his broad experience both in orchestral and electronic disciplines to write an eclectic mixture of scores from ITV's critically acclaimed period mini series Lost In Austen to Chris Smith's cult horror hit Severance (which earned him an Ivor Novello nomination for "Best Original Movie Score" in 2007). In 2008 Christian finished collaborating with long-term songwriting partner Caroline Lost on her debut album due out later in 2009. More recently he scored the children's fantasy blockbuster The Secret of Moonacre featuring collaborations with Morcheeba's Skye and Bat For Lashes' Natasha Kahn. Christian's other recent projects include the long awaited Chris Smith thriller Triangle.
