Kyle Gordon is a Los Angeles-based composer/arranger whose inventive and genre-fusing style is quickly gaining recognition in the symphonic world. With a background in classical, jazz, folk, pop, and rock music, Kyle is always exploring the connections between traditional and contemporary music styles.
In 2019, Kyle joined the esteemed team of copyists and orchestrators at Joann Kane Music Service where he began orchestrating and engraving for film. Working on titles such as Star Wars IX, Frozen 2, "The Simpsons," and "BBC Seven Worlds," he had the opportunity to learn from some of today’s orchestral masters.
