Spotlight Conversation: Jeff Rona

Presented by the Society of Composers & Lyricists

Composer and recording artist Jeff Rona has built a remarkable career spanning film, television, video games, solo albums, and international collaborations. From scoring Ridley Scott’s White Squall to contributing to iconic projects with Hans Zimmer, Mark Isham, and Cliff Martinez, his work blends electronic innovation, ambient textures, and orchestral depth with a signature emotional voice. Beyond Hollywood, Rona has scored groundbreaking documentaries, AAA video games like God of War 3 and Far Cry 4, and toured globally with artists including Dead Can Dance and Lisa Gerrard.

In this special conversation, Rona joins composer Jay Weigel to discuss the art and craft of composing across mediums, and explore how music can shape stories and connect audiences.
