Artist Snapshot
Taking their name from the tempestuous power of the Tasman sea, which lies between their homelands of New Zealand and Australia, Tasman composers’ Hanan Townshend and Samuel Lipman overlay soaring orchestral melodies atop simple flowing rhythms and delicate piano textures, evoking both the lyrical lushness and vast wilderness of Oceana. Tasman's extensive film scoring experience saturates their music, immersing the listener in an experience both vast and unforgettable.
