Grayson Sanders

about

Grayson Sanders was born in Memphis, Tennessee. He began classical piano study at the age of 6, but soon discovered to his Russian teacher's horror, that he much preferred to break apart classics into his own versions. This ultimately caused his expulsion from piano studio and a proper entrance into the world of composition. The son of an opera singer and oil painter, his household was a refuge of burgeoning creativity. On a whim his mom convinced him to submit to the Connecticut Young Composer's Competition, and at age 11 he won first place, premiering his piece with the Hartford Symphony at the historic Bushnell Opera House. At NYU, while studying under renowned composer Justin Dello Joio, he was offered the Composer-in-Residence position with the New York University Symphony, and upon graduation, won the University's high honors in Classical Composition. All four of his large scale symphonic works have premiered with local New York symphonies. Sanders is active in the pop music world as well, writing songs, scores, and arrangements for other recording artists. He has scored 15 short films, including most recently a commission for Oscar Nominated Documentary Filmmakers Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady for the Sundance Institute. He has contributed music to artist releases and remixes including Wyclef Jean, Niia, Local Natives, Frankie Rose, Snowmine, and others. His artist project Snowmine has released two acclaimed albums and toured extensively. His song "Beautifu
