Universal Production Music Teams Up With Harry-Gregson Williams

Universal Production Music, Universal Music Publishing Group's leading, global production music company, has announced an exclusive production music joint venture with prolific, award-winning film composer Harry Gregson-Williams.

Harry Gregson-Williams is one of the most sought-after composers in Hollywood with a lengthy list of high-profile film and TV music credits. Recent film and TV projects include 'The Last Duel' and 'House of Gucci', both directed by Ridley Scott; Disney's live action feature film 'Mulan' directed by Niki Caro; Disneynature's 'Penguins' and 'Polar Bear'; HBO's 'The Gilded Age' and the Netflix documentary 'Return to Space'.

Acclaimed for his work on all four instalments of the global hit 'Shrek' franchise, Gregson-Williams garnered a BAFTA nomination for the first film. He has received Golden Globe and Grammy Award nominations for his score for ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe’ and is an Emmy nominee for his work on the anthology series ‘Philip K. Dick’s Electric Dreams’ for “The Commuter” episode.

The new label, 'Scored By: Harry Gregson-Williams', features albums composed by Gregson-Williams and his team, curated with label partner and fellow composer Tom Howe. The label’s creation was inspired by premium quality Film & TV score repertoire for clients wanting the best quality production music. The launch will feature mood-based album themes ranging from action-packed chases to apprehensive tension and impulsive ripples, all with Gregson-Williams’ signature compositional style and sound.

"I'm extremely happy to be partnering with Universal Production Music on the creation of this new music label. Making my music available in this way - beyond the boundaries of the specific film and television score commissions I'm doing - seems like a wonderful opportunity and a natural extension to my work," said Gregson-Williams.

The new agreement further strengthens Gregson-Williams’ close relationship with Universal Music, having signed an exclusive, global administration deal with Universal Music Publishing Group in 2019.
