Chengyan Li

Paul Li is a screen scoring composer and pianist. He was trained from a young age and thus developed a deep passion for music performance and composition. With broad intellectual interests and an extensive knowledge base, he completed a double major in Piano Performance and Mathematics at New York University, followed by a master degree in Data Science at Columbia University. Afterward, he chose to follow his heart and go to USC, studying Screen Scoring.
Like his idol Frédéric Chopin, he is good at capturing the emotions, drawing on the knowledge he has learned from those great composers, and expressing them in his own fantastical voice. He enjoys exploring harmonies and motives, placing them within visual narratives and giving them meaning. And most importantly, he always puts beautiful melodies first. He has composed music for a number of games and animations, some of these works were written for his friends, which brought him a sense of joy and fulfillment.
He is a dedicated creator who strives to achieve the highest standard in every aspect of his work, and is eager to collaborate with more interesting artists from diverse backgrounds. So, feel free to contact me if you resonate with my style (¯︶¯).
