Thomas Bingham is a France-based composer. Born in Paris and partly raised in New York, he started playing piano at the age of 4. He studied musicology and English literature at the University of Geneva, alongside music theory at the Geneva Haute école de musique, before studying film scoring at the Berklee College of Music.
Classically trained as a pianist, Thomas writes music that draws elements from neo-classical, post-minimal and ambient influences.
Today, Thomas writes music for multimedia projects – recent ones include Trenc d'Alba (2023), directed by Anna Llarguès and nominated at the Festival de Cannes (La Cinef), a project he worked on with Amanda Fandos. He has received recognition for his work on film, as a recipient of the Best Original Music award at the 2017 International Special Effects Festival in Montpellier, France for his score on the animated short Yemanja.
Other projects include working as a musician on the three time Oscar-nominated film Flee (2021), directed by Jonas Poher Rasmussen.
