BrianTyler appears to be having the same sort of career trajectory that many an A-list composer has slogged through at some point in his career; he's still relatively young for his field of work, and the enthusiasm that is found in his music is undeniably infectious.
Tyler, of course, is of the movie-brat generation; he follows in the footsteps of composers whose cultural reference points were more steeped, arguably, in mediums outside of film and television: radio, for example, and musical theatre.
Tyler is working off of what people know and expect from a traditional orchestral score and in that respect he manages to create a crowd-pleasing album that, fortunately, does not lean too terribly hard on its influences to justify itself.
BrianTyler received his bachelor's degree from UCLA and his master's degree from Harvard University.
Tyler continued playing piano, classical percussion, guitar, bass, and drums in various orchestras, music ensembles, choirs, and bands all the way up to 1997 when he decided to enter the world of film scoring.
Tyler also scored Columbia Picture's John Carpenter's: Los Muertos, Jane Doe for producer Joel Silver and USA Films, the horror-comedy Bubba Ho-Tep starring Bruce Campbell as well as the theme and underscore for the CBS series The Education of Max Bickford starring Richard Dreyfuss and Marcia Gay Harden.
