ADIESCAR CHASE
TV, FILM & GAMES COMPOSER
Adiescar Chase has emerged as an exciting and distinctive composer and multi-instrumentalist working across a diverse range of projects, from television drama and film to video games and animation. Composing in a variety of contemporary musical styles, Adiescar brings a fresh and unique approach to her work. She has recently received a BAFTA Craft Awards nomination for Best Original Music: Fiction for her score to the Netflix series ‘Heartstopper’ (produced by See-Saw Films).
Adiescar’s other recent projects include the new 'Waterloo Road' drama series, which returned to the BBC in 2023, and BBC documentary 'Sarah Everard: The Search for Justice'.
Further works include the Channel 4 drama 'Consent', BBC documentary 'Tommy Jessop Goes To Hollywood', and a collaboration with the legendary electronic artist Jean-Michel Jarre on his latest album.
After graduating with a first class BMus (Hons) degree in composition at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2017, Adiescar went on to study for a Masters in Composition for Film and Television at the National Film & Television School graduating in early 2021.
