About Rebecca Corfield

Knyght has been playing piano since she was six and playing video games *even longer than that.* And while her instrument studies may have started at that age, her musical journey began much earlier with a love for the score of Tom & Jerry. This captivating harmony of classical and jazz music has followed her throughout her life. Realising she could marry her love of games and music, Knyght works as a composer for media.

Her musical taste is an eclectic mix of genres, and her curiosity and experimentation has created an accomplished multi-genre composer. Each project she works on benefits from a customised approach. The choice of focus could be establishing strong motifs, the importance of a solo instrument, a foundation of rhythmic percussion, or something else entirely. Creating a collaborative atmosphere when working with musicians, Knyght leans into the skills and uniqueness of each performer to help bring her composition to life in a natural and refreshing way.

Particular favourites and strong influences include: Disasterpeace (Hyper Light Drifter, Fez), Joe Hisaishi (Studio Ghibli), and Olivier Deriviere (A Plague Tale, Vampyr) – to name but a few.
