Susan DiBona, born in New Haven, CT and based in Italy since 2014, is a prolific film composer who has created, produced, orchestrated and conducted over 50 original scores for popular European and international prime-time TV shows, series and numerous international feature films.

A poly-instrumentalist as well as multilingual, she has conducted such prestigious orchestras as the Rome Film Orchestra, the Berliner Symphoniker, ensembles of the Babelsberger Filmorchester and the RAI National Symphony Orchestra in Turin, Italy.

She attended the Buddy Baker/ASCAP Film Scoring Workshop at NYU and was mentored there by Mark Snow and Oscar-winning composer Carter Burwell's orchestrator, Sonny Kompanek.

Her first piano and theory teacher at the age of seven was the composer and virtuoso pianist Leopold Godowksky III, the nephew of George Gershwin, who encouraged her to develop her natural composition skills at a very young age.

Susan has also written many original songs for TV and cinema, one of which was recently shortlisted for the prestigious Italian cinema award, Premio David di Donatello.

A former longtime resident of Berlin-Kreuzberg, Germany, she has a varied background in music from every angle: she's toured with rock bands, directed musicals, written operas, worked as a session pianist and orchestrator, vocal coached, arranged, and penned lyrics for charting artists under contract with BMG/Universal Music.

She recently conducted original commissioned works with the renowned Italian Solisti Aquilani chamber orchestra in for an album recording for the label Aulicus Classics alongside other award-winning contemporary Italian film composers.

Susan DiBona is the founder and co-owner of The Villa Studios Praia a Mare, an independent film music production house in Italy along with her partner, the composer and pianist Salvatore Sangiovanni.
