“Alongside Rachmaninoff and Szymanowski, the highlight of the evening was the fascinating and adventurous new composition by Sem Hak”
Wil Senden, FASO
Growing up in the most forested region of The Netherlands I was always surrounded with nature. A deep-founded curiosity for everything around me always resounds in my works. I write music about space travel, create designs to bring the wildest fantasies to life and make websites to enable everyone to discover these stories.
I studied music composition at the Utrecht Conservatory with Caroline Ansink and Jeroen D’Hoe and I am currently studying at the Codarts Conservatory of Music in Rotterdam. My music always tells a story, albeit one close to my heart or about things we can only dream of. I write for a broad range of settings, ranging from solo instruments to large symphonic orchestras.
Every artist deserves to be seen. But to be seen requires either a lot of money, the right contacts or a lucky break. I take great joy in helping both aspiring and established arists around me find their audience by giving them a sophisticated on- and offline presence made to fit.
I take a special interest in creating with and for LGBTQ+ community. Not only because I label myself as such, but most importantly because I believe a strong visual and digital presence is key to creating more awareness, understanding and recognition for good causes.
There’s one thing I love more than either composing music and making visuals: a multitude of these and anything else together. I’m the happiest working on projects that glue multiple artistic aspects together.
Let’s work together. Let’s inspire each other. Let’s create something.
