Danny Elfman Biography - The Voice of Jack Skellington Makes a Rare Live Outing

Whilst other teenagers spent their free time enjoying the Californian sun or going to the mall, the young Elfman whiled away his youth in the local movie theatre, enchanted by the works of Franz Waxman and Bernard Herrmann. After travelling the world in search of musical inspiration he took over from his brother in new wave group Oingo Boingo, steering the band towards a more rock-orientated sound.

His original approach to music made Elfman a natural choice for Tim Burton and Paul Reubens when they invited him to write the score for their first feature film, Pee-wee's Big Adventure. Initially apprehensive due to his lack of formal education, the composer quickly proved his mettle and the beginnings of a lifelong partnership were born. Since then the musician has gone on to score many of Burton's films, even providing the singing voice for Jack Skellington in The Nightmare Before Christmas.

With three decades of Emmy, Academy and Grammy-winning film scores to his name, it's about time this composer's works were given the live treatment. The London Concert Orchestra will be bringing life to the scores under the direction of conductor John Mauceri, in front of a backdrop of Burton's original sketches and storyboards. Lucky concert goers will even get to see the composer himself perform a rare live set.
