Jeffrey Gold

Winner of the Jury Choice Gold Medal for his score of the full-length feature film Abby Singer in the 2004 Park City Film Music Festival and Semi-Finalist in the Filmscoring Competition of the 2004 Moondance International Film Festival, film composer Jeffrey Gold's works have also premiered at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Centres in Cardiff, Wales and in Piccadilly, London, on television in the U.K. and U.S., on radio, and at film festivals in the U.S. His music for Ken Verdoia's Promontory has also premiered on PBS television in the U.S. Educated at the University of Utah and Cambridge University, England, he is a lifetime member of the Cambridge Film and Television Society.

Writes Gerald Elias, Associate Concertmaster of the Utah Symphony and First Violin of the Abramyan String Quartet, "I have had the opportunity to listen to the 'Elegy: Adagio for Strings' by Jeffrey Gold. This short piece, in the tradition of Barber and Vaughan-Williams is effective and compelling. Mr. Gold's use of rich string sonorities and evocative voice-leading, creating well-timed and poignant dissonances, conveys a mood of simultaneous despair and hope."

In 2005 he was invited to participate in the 19th Annual Sundance Institute Independent Producers Conference and the 3rd Annual Sundance Institute Theatre Program/Johnny Mercer Foundation Master Class with composers and performers Melissa Manchester, Jimmy Webb, Michael Rupert, Margaret Whiting, and Charles Strouse.

He is a member of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP).
