ROBERT MOUTREY

EXECUTIVE CREATIVE PRODUCER / SOUND DESIGNER / COMPOSER

The best sound is not decoration. It changes how a story is understood, felt and remembered.

Robert is a composer, musician and sound designer from Manchester, based in London. He studied Popular Music at Leeds College of Music before touring internationally as a musician and returning to theatre in 2016.

His work now moves between live performance and produced audio: sound design for theatre, original music, Radio 4 documentary, narrative podcasting and the development of new sound-led work.

That range is useful because Robert can hold the creative ambition and the production system in the same conversation. He can originate the idea, lead the sound-and-music response and build the right delivery structure around it.
