Episode 566 - Film Composer and CEO of Budapest Scoring Balint Sapszon


Listen Later

My guest today is composer, orchestrator, and CEO of Budapest Scoring, Balint Sapszon. 

Trained at the prestigious Bartók Conservatory and Liszt Academy of Music in Hungary, Bálint holds a Master’s Degree in Composition, Jazz Arrangement, and Music Theory. In 2007 he received a Fulbright Scholarship to study film scoring at the University of California Los Angeles, where he quickly began establishing himself in the world of film music.

Bálint’s film scoring and orchestration credits include Parasite, which was the Oscar winner for Best Picture, Spike Lee’s Netflix film See You Yesterday, all time Chinese box office hit Operation Red Sea, the HBO film Bad Education, and more.

After using his friends back in his native Hungary to record the score for his first film, and then helping other composers do their scores there as well, Balint founded the Budapest Scoring Orchestra and eventually purchased one of the finest scoring stages in Europe to record in. Today Budapest Scoring is used by composers, film and television studios from around the world.

During the interview we talked about the birth of Budapest Scoring, his transition into film scoring, the global impact of the Orchestra, his Jazz influences, and much more.

I spoke with Balint from his home in Los Angeles
