Musician and painter, Ory Chalk composes original, captivating and personal cinematic music. Utilizing strong emotions and contrasts, as can be found in paintings with brilliant colors, Ory paints with musical notes. Her universe is a fascinating one where sensuality and emotions have an important place and lead one through a classical, sometimes modern architecture. When we first heard Ory's music we knew she had a special talent. Long sensual melodic lines and deep rich harmonies combine in a very personal approach to the musical landscape. Her compositions are truly well grounded in the lineage of the great european film composers. |
