From famously not wanting to have a biography written to now having a fully published official one, the story of how composer John Williams and author Tim Greiving got to know each other through the process of creating the book 'John Williams: A Composer's Life' is arguably as fascinating as the creation of many film scores we now know and love. Join us as we chat with Tim about his process of writing the first official biography of John Williams, and what it was like spending lots of time with the maestro himself.

More about the book will be shared at the London Soundtrack Festival, at a QnA on 12 April!

Our first episode in collaboration with the 2026 London Soundtrack Festival features Hannah Peel, a composer with an incredibly unique voice, infectious personality, and the most adorable studio dog! In this episode, we chat with Hannah not only about her work on award winning scores such as 'The Midwich Cuckoos', 'Game Of Thrones: The Last Watch', and 'Midwinter Break', but also a range of other exciting topics including the process of developing sample libraries, and reflecting on film scoring trends.
