The first female composer to ever win an Oscar, native Brit Rachel Portman studied Music at Oxford University, having begun composing at the age of thirteen.
Her credits include the scores for ‘Emma’, ‘Chocolat’, ‘Oliver Twist’, ‘The Cider House Rules’, ‘The Duchess’, and most recently ‘Never Let Me Go’.
She writes lush, sweeping scores which favour the use of the traditional orchestra and are often piano-led, this being the instrument on which she prefers to compose.

"Bike Ride", song instrumental of soundtrack of "Mona Lisa Smile" makes me dream and cry when I watch the scene where the song plays. It's so wonderful, full of emotion, dream, and sadness. Like I said, it makes me dream. I love so much this song.

Bagger Vance score... so beautiful. Women are definitely under-represented in the world of film composition.

Snow Flower is gorgeous - though obviously it's a Portman, so it was bound to be emotionally affecting.
