Patrick Hamilton is a multi-faceted artist who effortlessly moves between the roles of composer, producer and performer.   Newly-signed to Sony Music Masterworks, Hamilton also successfully combines his work as a composer in the contemporary classical space with his work in film and TV score composition.

Artistically diverse, Patrick Hamilton is rooted in the core classical tradition.  Hailing from Bruges in Belgium, he was classically trained at the Royal Conservatoires in Bruges & Ghent before embarking on a hugely successful and varied musical career, spanning many genres.

He first worked as a sought-after session player before becoming an in-demand producer-engineer.  His time spent working with leading local Belgian and Dutch artists led to his input on popular TV programmes such as ‘Pop Idol’ and ‘The X-Factor’ and on musicals such as ‘Dance of the Vampires’, ‘Fiddler on the Roof’, ‘Annie’ and ‘Oliver’, whilst continuing to pursue his deep interest in contemporary classical music.

Hamilton soon became the producer of choice for a range of internationally renowned artists, including Alfie Boe OBE, Richard Clayderman, David Garrett, Katherine Jenkins OBE and Sir Bryn Terfel CBE, to name but a few.    His production, writing and arranging work for best-selling classical female artist, Katherine Jenkins, has seen him oversee a number of her albums,  all of which went to number 1 on the UK Classical Chart, including her 12th studio album ‘Cinema Paradiso’ (2022)

In addition to his successful career in contemporary classical and film/TV composition and in production, Patrick Hamilton also runs his own studios ‘The Globe Recording Studios’, founded in 2002 as well as operating BROMO Music Publishing, the publishing department of The Globe music company.   His studios have welcomed a wide range of artists as wide-ranging as Cardfall, Matt Dunkley, Katherine Jenkins, Johnny Logan, Jessica Lynn, Mark Masri, Fernando Varela and many more.

Patrick is signed to Sony Music Masterworks and published by Decca Publishing (UMPG) where he was one of their first signings along with Max Richter.
