Kurt
Bestor
For more than
a decade, Kurt Bestor's film scores, television themes, compositions
and carols have provided indelible soundtracks for American
life. Indeed, much of Bestor's own life has been dedicated
to creating musical parallels to visual images. Perhaps best
known for his innovative interpretation of seasonal carols
on Kurt Bestor Christmas, Volumes One and Two, the Utah-based
composer and performer launched his career writing music for
television and movies. His credits include more than 30 film
scores and more than 4o themes for national TV programs and
commercials. It is Bestor's music that has introduced Good
Morning America, NFL Monday Night Football, and ABC's Sunday
Night Movie; he has scored TBS's Wild! Life Adventures and
the IMAX film Great American West, and he won the Outstanding
Film Score Award at the New York Film and Television Festival
for his music for PBS's A More Perfect Union. Bestor was also
awarded an Emmy for his collaboration with Sam Cardon on the
original music for ABC's coverage of the 1988 Winter Olympics.
