Andrea Farri

Andrea Farri is an Italian composer who has worked on over 70 different film and television productions. He began playing and writing music at 9. Then, at age 17, he started composing for theatre and dance companies. Shortly thereafter, Andrea was given the Assistant Director position on Roberto Benigni's film Tom Waits: The Tiger and the Snow. In 2005, he wrote the soundtrack for two of Jean Vigo’s silent films A propos de Nice and Taris. That project led to a tour including live performances while the film played on a screen in the background, just as in times past. In 2013 the Italian newspaper "La Repubblica" named Andrea as one of the top Italian composers. With the movie Latin Lover (2015) by Cristina Comencini, Andrea won the Italian Golden Globe for the best original score. In 2017, he received two nominations at David di Donatello for Best Original Score and Best Original Song for Italian Race (Veloce come il vento). In 2019, Andrea was nominated by Nastri d'Argento and David di Donatello for the soundtrack of The First King: Birth of an Empire (Il Primo Re). In 2020, he created and produced the music for the short Le Château du Tarot directed by Matteo Garrone, produced by DIOR to present all over the world the Dior Spring Summer 2021 Haute Couture Collection. In 2021, he created the soundtrack for Peter Chelsom's film Security, an adaptation of the novel by US author Stephen Amidon. The film was one of the biggest hits on Netflix America.
