Peter Gregson (born 1987) is a cellist and composer.[1]
He was born in Edinburgh and was educated at the Edinburgh Academy and the Royal Academy of Music.[2]
Gregson composed the score for the 2015 film A Little Chaos, marking his first major film scoring job.[3] Richard Lawson of Vanity Fair named it his favourite score of the year, dubbing it "a string-heavy stunner",[4] though Dennis Harvey writing for Variety magazine described it as "clichéd, saccharine score".[5] Gregson was interviewed as part of BBC Radio Ulster's Classical Connections with John Toal programme in May 2015.[6] In 2022, he provided a remix of Moby's song Extreme Ways.
