Biography
Antonio Pinto received a Golden Globe nomination in 2008 for Best Original Song "Despedida" co-written with Shakira from the film Love in the Time of Cholera directed by Mike Newell. Additionally, Antonio also scored the critically acclaimed Senna (Working Title/Universal), SNITCH (Summit), Perfect Stranger for Sony and Lord of War for Lionsgate directed by Andrew Niccol and collaborated with Michael Mann on HBO's Witness and Collateral (Dreamworks).
Previously Antonio was celebrated for his brilliant score to the indie smash City of God (2003), Antonio Pinto has been scoring films for around a decade including many award winning pictures including Central Station (1998), Behind the Sun (2002), and Midnight (2000). He has worked with such directors as Fernando Meirelles, Walter Salles, Sergio Machado, Heitor Dhalia, and Niki Caro, as well as up-and-coming Ecuadorian director Sebastian Cordero in Cronicas starring John Leguizamo, produced by Alfonso Cuaron and Jorge Vergara. Cronicas was acquired by Focus Features at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.
Antonio Pinto's gift is his understanding that music is something going on around us all the time. He can hear and bring to life a world and a spirit stolen directly from the streets and hearts of the people who live in his films' illustrated worlds. And for those who have never felt what his music describes, his music creates for them a new reality. His sense of story is musically driven and can cut to the center of the deepest emotion with the simplicity of a lingering note and can just as smoothly blazon its way instinctively into complicated dancy techno samba with an ever-flowing energy that continually compliments its narrative. He creates a flow and adds logic to vision. He can depict any mood and has over a thousand ways to musically describe human passions. He can make sense of scenes that have been smashed together with opposing tones; and has such precision in describing moments that he ends up orchestrating the audience as much as he orchestrates his instruments.
