"Active composer, with a solid training and productive career"
Spanish cinema is already such a treasure trove of outstanding film music, and Leanizbarrutia is the latest composer to join the group of its most outstanding practitioners. Best Scores of 2017-Spain, Jonathan Broxton
Formed in music from an early age, I start my education studying clarinet in the Conservatoire of Music of Palencia, my little town, finishing with four years more in the Royal High Conservatoire of Music of Madrid, studying composition, electroacoustic, counterpoint, orchestration, advanced harmony, conducting... a lot of things!
At the same time, I applied a lot of different courses specialized in composition, conducting and film scoring with several highly composers teachers. Then, I decided to complete my education studying Master in Film Scoring at the university Alfonso X el Sabio.
In spite of my young age, I has a lot of experience working from 2013 for Three Columns Entertainment, in which composed and produced more than thirty projects, from TV short films, documentaries, and five feature films (Poveda, Luz de Soledad, Red de Libertad, Claret & Petra de San José), which gives me several nominations and awards, including nomination in the Hollywood Music in Media Awards.
I have work in other different projects too, as orchestrator for the Netflix movie Klaus, or the TVE program "Prodigios" for example.
I like composing for picture, but I enjoy composing for concert of course, with works like the music for the prestigious art exhibition "Las Edades del Hombre" and others concert works like "Bella Desconocida" for historic organ, "Ave Maria" for soprano, mass for choir and orchestra and more pieces.
