Studies
I’ve studied film scoring and orchestration with composers such as Conrad Pope (Star Wars, Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Benjamin Button, Matrix), Nan Schwarz (Grammy winner), Roque Baños (Don’t Breath, In the heart of the sea), Lluís Vergés, Lucio Godoy or Luís Ivars.
I did my piano, drumming and theory of music studies at “Taller de musics” school of Barcelona, Escola Àngel Soler and Escola Santa Anna.
And I’ve also studied audiovisual media at La Mercè Image school of Barcelona and worked as filmmaker and editor at TV3, the Catalan National Television.
"Joan Vilà impresses with a beautiful orchestral score, melodic approaches and intelligent narrative skills (Y todos arderán)"
- Michael Carlsson (Movie Score Media)
"A parte de tener una gran sensibilidad musical, es tremendamente dúctil para adaptar su música y estilo a las imágenes. Joan es un músico profundo y generoso, y espero tener la oportunidad de volver a trabajar con el"
- Jordi Cadena (Director de cine)
"Sensibilidad, talento y efectividad"
- Miki Esparbé (Actor y Director de cine)
"Banda sonora con un gran poder dramático y narrativo (Y todos arderán). El compositor firma una banda sonora sinfónica, coral y electrónica para el género de terror en la que prioriza lo dramático poniéndolo en un primer plano explicativo. Espléndida resolución en el final de la película."
- Conrado Xalabarder (Fotogramas)
"Y todos arderán es una excelente banda sonora que proporciona un arco musical a los personajes para establecer una música narrativa que acompaña y alimenta a la historia, desarrollándose finalmente en un tercer acto en el que la banda sonora consigue aportar un gran impacto emocional"
- Miguel A Reina (En Primera Fila)
