About this episode
“I realized I was working with many, many different cultures… all this culture was coming into my studio.”
The Hollywood Film Composers Series
Presented by The Jeremiah Show and Executive Producer Carol Connors

Cyril Morin has built a career on a rare skill: finding humanity’s musical score in the distance in between.
The Paris-born, Conservatoire-trained composer—featured on The Jeremiah Show as part of the Hollywood Film Composer Series with executive producer Carol Connors—has scored films that move across borders, languages, and belief systems without losing emotional clarity. His music doesn’t “tour” cultures. It listens and then finds the bridge.
Morin’s credits include The Syrian Bride and Zaytoun, as well as his immersive work on Samsara—projects that ask the same question in different settings: how do people stay connected when the world pulls them apart? Morin’s answer starts with the theme.
That ethic extends beyond the studio. Morin spoke candidly about choosing projects with intention—turning down films that feel violent “for no reason,” or stories that don’t align with his vision of the world. His guiding value, he said, is freedom: the inner kind that lets an artist say yes, say no, and change course without fear of the latter.
Now, his output keeps expanding. He’s scoring a documentary about the sport of cricket, writing a new book, and continuing to explore music outside film—including his latest release with his band SUPERCREATIVE by CYMO (a Crew of Pals & Jammers) and the career-spanning collection 25 Years Soundtracks.
Through it all, Morin returns to a simple identity: storyteller first, and the composer as the language he uses to tell it.
