Andy Pink specialises in sound and music composition for the arts.
He began work at London's Royal Court Theatre and progressed to freelance commissions from theatre groups including seminal companies such as Lumiere & Son and Station House Opera.
Andy has covered a broad range of assignments including work with English National Opera, the Royal Shakespeare Company and the first Native American Fashion Showcase at The Museum of Fine Arts, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In 2004 Andy was commissioned by The Siobhan Davies Dance Company to compose the soundscore for 'Bird Song' which toured nationally and internationally to critical acclaim. Bird Song was part of the successful bid in July 2005 for the London Olympics in 2012 via the '40 Artists 40 Days' initiative organised by the Tate in London.
In 2005 Andy composed music for 'Imperial Borders', part of Mavin Khoo's 'Chandra Luna', designed the sound for Adam Cooper's 'Les Liaisons Dangereuse' in Japan and worked on a new R.O.H commission with Mem Morrison that explored the world of the childhood bully. The end of the year brought a collaboration with Gerry Pilgrim's Corridor group, a site specific work in Soho's Marshall Street swimming baths.
2006/7 saw Andy collaborating with composers Will Todd and Ben Dunwell on the soundscore for the opera 'Whirlwind'. The year also included writing the music for the launch of Mazda's new MX5 for The Imagination Group whilst Bird Song was chosen as part of the national curriculum for GCSE dance for 2006-9. 'Leftovers', a sound installation with Mem Morrison, takes place in choice greasy spoon cafes throughout 2007/8. Andy is working with the Michael Clark Company on The Stravinsky Project, which opens at The Lincoln Center, New York this June.
