Soundtracks
John Putnam, soundtrack composer.
I've been writing music for over forty years as a soundtrack composer, songwriter, and studio arranger as well as performing popular music in
concerts and in clubs. Recently I've written film soundtracks with my Finale based studio including
"Sydney in the City" an independent film by Brenda Decesare.
"Adam and Eve", a short 5 minute student film by Parvati Autur
I'm also the composer for "Beer Pong: The Movie" a feature length
film musical by Gennaro Desposito being produced by Two Losers from Jersey Films. I've
written the music for all the songs and instrumentals. This movie is presently in
production.
My previous credits include two compositions for double brass quintet commissioned by MIT for their graduation exercises. This
music have been performed every year since 2005 at Harvard and/or MIT. I also have written theme music
for Action Five, for WBZ TV, (Channel Five in Boston), music for a New England Airlines TV advertisement,
theme music for WGBH-TV as well as many other soundtracks for independent films.
