Scoring Films With the Composer of Corvine, Crashing Eid, The Curve & Flight 404 | Suad Bushnaq
It's not often that we welcome a film score composer on QuarterTones. So we had a lot to chat about with award-winning composer Suad Bushnaq. We discuss the realities of writing music for cinema, her favorite Arab film scores of all time, and why the best movie soundtracks are those that you don't remember. We quizz Suad on how she chooses a key for her music, what it was like to study at Damascus' Higher Institute of Music after auditioning in front of no-other than the late Solhi al-Wadi, and overcoming one's ego as a creative.
Suad Bushnaq is an award-winning film and concert composer with more than 40 film credits to her name. Described as an "incredible artist" by Hans Zimmer, Suad was born and raised in Amman and studied at the Higher Institute of Music in Damascus, Syria and later at McGill University. Suad received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Original Score at the 10th Canadian Screen Awards in 2022.
