Scott W. Hallgren

After a two decade career as a touring and studio musician, Scott began what has become a busy film scoring and arranging career. He also continues writing original jazz & Brazilian flavored pieces for himself and other artists. An Emmy nominee in 2026 for music composition, Scott was also an 8 year Grammy voter and board member of the Nashville Composers' Association. His first album "Tango/Jazz", featuring all original music, was released on the Magnatune label in 2010 and has garnered over 5 million plays on Spotify. His latest release, SCORES (2015-2025) is a genre-bending compilation album which represents his diverse and compelling work across a decade of film, TV, and game scores.
