Music

Driven by rhythm and emotion, Jonah crafts music that speaks directly to the heart.

Jonah Luo is a music composition major at the USC Thornton School of Music, studying under Andrew Norman, Ted Hearne, and Donald Crockett. Heavily inspired by Romantic, film, and video game composers, Jonah writes music for both chamber ensembles and full orchestra.
 

He writes music for visual media, including video games and short films—such as Predators' Prey, a short film by his cousin, Chad Gu.

Besides composing, Jonah Luo studied conducting under Sharon Lavery and has conducted a live orchestra through the finale of Beethoven's First Symphony. As a French horn player, he studied under Danielle Ondarza, Caster Teoh, and Michael Zonshine. His performance highlights include the famous horn solo from Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony, as well as the first and second movements of Mozart's Third Horn Concerto.
