About me

My name is Sebastian Kauderer, and I’m an NYC-based music composer dedicated to creating mold-breaking productions that truly accentuate the screen viewing experience. Fueled by cinematic values since the age of 8, I have an extensive history translating raw emotions into storytelling music that captivates beyond just the ears. Even more, enjoy leveraging that dynamicity to not just spearhead soundtrack initiatives for films, TV series, documentaries, and video game productions worldwide, but also to inspire others in this industry on leaving their own marks along the way.

A bit about myself, I have always been a natural-born expressionist who's been attracted to concepts and ideas that convey a deeper meaning. With this as my roots, it ultimately became the catalyst for me to begin my musical studies at a young age and later study at Escuela de Música Contemporanea in Argentina and Berklee College of Music in Boston upon being awarded a scholarship by the Berklee World Scholarship Tour. During this time, I was also awarded the prestigious ‘Herb Pomeroy Award’ for outstanding composition and arrangements and concurrently mastered the art of piano: my expressional medium that is the foundation of the sounding color in every piece created. Since then, I have utilized every inch of this creative passion to develop a -still growing- inventory of progressions, all of which have led me to become an endorsed musician/composer renowned for fortifying compositions that genuinely connect, draw, and inspire.

As a pianist and composer, I have toured and performed with some of the world's most illustrious musicians on global stages. Some of the more notable performance highlights include the London Philarmonia, LA Philharmonic, Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra and Argentina National Symphony Orchestra. I’ve also composed the original soundtrack for numerous films, including (but not limited to) the Academy Award Winner “The Secret in Their Eyes” for Best Foreign Language Film, composing the score for "Border Run", and working alongside with Academy Award Winner Alex Dinelaris in his movie "In This, Our Time". Furthermore, I have also worked on many TV series for various networks. Some of which are HBO, Apple TV+, History Channel, Bravo, MTV, VH1, and Discovery Channel, with the most momentous highlights being the TV series "VICE" and "Long Way Up" featuring Ewan McGregor.

Motivated to leaving long-term impacts, nothing motivates me more than delivering storytelling content that enables others to reach new levels of success. From films to gaming productions, I design my music on a foundation of authenticity and demonstrate that ignited storytelling passion by unlocking new levels of immersive compositions that intrinsically captivate scene to scene. This, in conjunction with my reputation for creating pieces that stem right from the heart, is what shaped me into the respected (and passionate) artist I am today – one who continuously strives to raise the bar for my clients, their (and my) audiences, and my fellow musicians.
