Brian Earl is a composer and conductor. As an instrumentalist he was a member of the La Scala Opera House and Philharmonic Orchestras from 1983 to 2021. He conducted the La Scala Brass from 2006 to 2021. He studied composition at London University and conducting under George Hurst, and graduated in tuba and contrabass trombone at the Royal Northern School of Music. He debuted as a composer in 1995 and has a large and varied catalogue to his credit, including works for wind and symphony orchestras, two chamber operas, two ballets and music for theatre and screen. His compositions have been performed in Europe and the USA, as well as in Italy.

The most recent years have seen the premiere of his Concerto for Guitar and Orchestra at Rheine in Germany, the premiere of his Cantata The Queen with Golden Hair at the Stresa Festival in northern Italy, the performance of his Sinfonietta for winds at Ancona, at Moncado in Spain and at the University of Stanford in California, where his Dylan Thomas Variations for winds were also premiered in 2016. Also in 2016 he composed the sound track of Dione, a short science fiction film, and in 2020 the sound track of Tebori, a horror thriller. In 2018 the La Scala Brass performed and recorded his Contrapunctus super cantum cremonensem.
