Bio

English composer and trumpet player (b. Cornwall 1981).

Simon Dobson is a trumpet player, composer, producer and principal conductor of the Parallax Orchestra. As well as conducting and working as an MD internationally, he is a critically-acclaimed and widely-performed composer and a recipient of two British Composer Awards for his works 'Symphony of Colours' and 'Journey of the Lone Wolf'.

In 2014 he wrote his first full-length film score 'The Battles of The Coronel and the Falkland Islands' which was commissioned by the British Film Institute and received its premiere with fully-restored film in the Archive gala concert of the London Film Festival at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.

As a founding member of the session horn crew Badcore Horns, Dobson has performed as a trumpeter on over thirty albums to date, from Madness and Martha Reeves to Dry the River and We are the Ocean. He recently toured with London hip-hop band Lazy Habits and is currently the trumpeter of the Plymouth band Antimatador. In addition to his composition and performance work, Dobson is a regular studio arranger and has written strings for numerous records.

In 2015 Dobson released his first solo composition album entitled 'Euneirophrenia' which contains the first brass band test piece to be printed to vinyl in nearly 30 years.
