Chris Boardman(I)
- Music Department
- Composer
- Additional Crew
Most professional musicians are lucky to have one career. Chris
Boardman has already had five. He's been a successful composer for
movies; an Emmy Award-winning arranger for television; an orchestrator
on major Hollywood films; a musical director for top pop acts; and
keyboard player and writer for a popular jazz ensemble. Boardman is
already well-known in Hollywood music circles as one of a handful of
musicians who can literally write anything. His original music has
resulted in an Academy Award nomination (for Steven Spielberg's "The
Color Purple") and two Emmy nominations (for "The HIjacking Of The
Achille Lauro" and "Johnny Ryan"). He made three albums with the
pioneering contemporary azz ensemble "Wishful Thinking" in the late
1980's, and recorded an album of his own smooth-jazz compositions
featuring an all-star ensemble.
