Wisconsin-based keyboardist and composer Brian Hagen draws from an eclectic musical background for both original compositions and arrangements of materials from other composers. He has composed and performed movie soundtracks for the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Cinematique Festival, and as a musician with Madison's groundbreaking Ark Improvisation Theater. His prime sources of inspiration are Classical and Romantic, New Age, Adult Contemporary Jazz, and Space music. Brian's approach is focused on having the music tell a story.
Brian Hagen's formal musical education started with piano lessons at age four and progressed through a Music Major undergraduate degree at Illinois State University. There he studied composition with a disciple of Igor Stravinsky and performed in numerous Classical and Jazz solo and ensemble settings. Since graduation, he has brought four CDs to market with five-star reviews. He specializes in compositions and arrangements of Jazz, Classical, New Age, and Space Music. Brian's focus is to have each creation be like a moving musical picture with emotional contours that are progressive throughout the piece. His long-standing interest in and study of movie soundtracks is a driving element of his style.
