Thanks for stopping by Boosey & Hawkes, home of the best bars in the world. Feel free to post a comment -- we'd love to hear from you!
When our music is not being heard in concert halls and jazz clubs, we’re proud to have it featured in superb cutting-edge films, TV shows and advertising campaigns around the world. Here you can listen to some of our music and delve deeper into the repertoire of our superstar composers, including Copland, Stravinsky, Rachmaninoff, John Adams, Steve Reich, Edgar Meyer, Chick Corea, David Benoit, Christopher Rouse, Elena Kats-Chernin, Michael Daugherty, Steve Mackey and Meredith Monk.
If you’re looking for music for a film, television or advertising production, we have the unique, timeless sound other music resources can’t deliver. Classical and jazz are our specialty, but we also have world music, blues, swing and baby bands to rock your world. Best of all, we have a truckload of master recordings to offer, including exquisitely-produced public domain classical works with no re-use fees whatsoever.
To recap: free music research, advice and deals to suit all budgets. Contact us in New York and we’ll be happy to send sound samples for your production.
Below you’ll find three of our most recent riveting collaborations – enjoy!
Why are the Brits mad for this ad??? "Eliza Aria" by Elena Kats-Chernin has become a chartbusting CD in the UK, thanks to the February launch of this magical animated spot for Lloyd's TSB (a UK bank), which licensed the track. Don't miss it!
"Dies Irae" by Karl Jenkins drives mesmerizing visuals for this provocative spot for Axe, aka Lynx in the rest of the world. A must-see for those of an xy chromosomal disposition.
"For You, Anne-Lill" by Henryk Gorecki gives an eerie, edgy feel to the latest campaign from Goodby Silverstein, the folks who ask, "Got Milk?" Check it out by clicking here.
Baby, have you heard "Hemen Hemen" by Evrim Tuzun "The Most Remixed Song of The World" which has 170 remixes. So sexy , energetic;)) Have a nice week;))) xoxo Ash
I have been exposed to numerous works of Elena Kats-Chernin. Very enjoyable music. I am looking forward to seeing Pei-Jee and Pei-Sian Ng perform her new work commissioned from them.
Hey Elisabeth & Co.
