Biografía de Danny Elfman

Daniel Robert 'Danny' Elfman is an American composer, record producer, and actor originally from California who was the lead singer of the rock band Oingo Boingo.

Danny Elfman is one of the most celebrated film and TV composers of the modern day. He made his debut in 1980 on the film 'Forbidden Zone' which was actually directed by his older brother Richard who invited Danny to score the piece and he has continued since then to great success. His award total stands at four Academy Award nominations, one Emmy award for the Desperate Housewives theme tune and one Grammy Award in the category of Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media which he won for 'Batman' directed by Tim Burton.

His collaborations with Burton began in 1985 when the director and Paul Ruebens invited Danny to score 'Pee-wee's Big Adventure'. The working relationship proved a hit, with Elfman scoring all but two of Burton's future major releases such as 'Sleepy Hollow', 'Mars Attacks!' and 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'. He also provided the singing voice of Jack the skeleton in 'Nightmare Before Christmas' and Bonejangles the skeleton in 'Corpse Bride'.

Elfman's music can be heard in some of the most famous pieces of modern TV and film. Most recognisable perhaps, the theme tune to The Simpsons which Danny composed. He also scored blockbusters such as 'Spider-Man 2' 'Milk' 'Alice In Wonderland' and 'Silver Linings Playbook'.

Críticas en vivo

Any concert that Danny Elfman performs is spectacularly magical! As a long time fan of his work that he has done for the Tim Burton films and The Simpsons, I truly respect him as a composer. Attending one of his concerts is like being enveloped into a magical wonderland. Where all your wildest dreams come true.

He is one of Hollywood's most well known composer and to attend any of his concerts is a delightful experience.There are times where you get that shiver up your spine. I especially get that whenever he performs any Nightmare Before Christmas or Edward Scissorhands music.

If you are very lucky to attend one of his shows where he performs the music from Alice In Wonderland, you are in for a wonderful ride! It is like you are actually spiraling down the bunny hole with Alice. You start to think to yourself that you just might catch a glimpse of The Cheshire Cat or even The Mad Hatter himself. When he performs the music from The Corpse Bride, you feel sadden that Emily will never be loved by Victor in the way that she so desperately wishes he would.

The audience is completely enthralled the entire time. It's like riding a very long, but beautiful, roller coaster ride. When it finally ends, you wish you could do it all over again. Danny Elfman is truly wonderful.
