Biografie
Mychael Danna studied music composition at the University of Toronto, winning the Glenn Gould Composition Scholarship in 1985. He won an Oscar® and a Golden Globe Award for his score for Ang Li's acclaimed 2012 drama "Life of Pi." He earned a second Oscar® nomination, for Best Song, for "Pi's Lullaby," as well as BAFTA Award, Grammy Award and Critics' Choice Award nominations for the score.
Danna hails from Canada, where he has won five Genie Awards, e.g. for his score for "Water," directed by Deepa Mehta. He has won four of his Genie Awards for his composing work on the Egoyan-directed films "Ararat," "Felicia's Journey," "The Sweet Hereafter" and "Exotica." Danna has also repeatedly collaborated with other noted filmmakers, including Bennett Miller, on "Moneyball" and "Capote"; Mira Nair, on "Vanity Fair," "Monsoon Wedding" and "Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love"; Ang Lee, on "Ride with the Devil" and "The Ice Storm"; Billy Ray, on "Breach" and "Shattered Glass"; and Terry Gilliam, on "Tideland" and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus."
In addition, Danna composed the score for the hit "Little Miss Sunshine," for which he shared in a Grammy Award nomination for Best Compilation Soundtrack Album. His long list of film composing credits also includes "Going the Distance"; "(500) Days of Summer"; Neil LaBute's "Lakeview Terrace"; the animated "Surf's Up"; Gregory Hoblit's "Fracture"; István Szabó's "Being Julia"; Denzel Washington's directorial debut, "Antwone Fisher"; Scott Hicks' "Hearts in Atlantis"; James Mangold's "Girl, Interrupted"; and Joel Schumacher's "8MM."
For television, Danna won an Emmy Award for his score for the miniseries "World Without End," and received an Emmy nomination for the main title theme of the Starz original series "Camelot." In addition, he has composed music for such series as "Medium," "Dollhouse," "New Amsterdam" and "Avonlea."
