Gabriel Yared ({{langx|ar|غبريال يارد}}; born 7 October 1949) is a Lebanese-French composer, best known for his work in French and American cinema.
Born in Beirut, Lebanon, Yared scored the French films Betty Blue and Camille Claudel. He later worked on English-language films, particularly those directed by Anthony Minghella. He won an Academy Award for Best Original Score and a Grammy Award for his work on The English Patient (1996) and was nominated for both The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) and Cold Mountain (2003).{{Cite web|url=https://www.classicfm.com/discover-music/periods-genres/film-tv/gabriel-yared/|title='I would have loved someone to tell me they were confident in my talent': Gabriel Yared, composer of The English Patient|publisher=Classic FM}}
Life and career
When Yared was 7, his father sent him to an accordion teacher. Two years later Yared stopped his accordion lessons and started music theory and piano lessons. Although he was not necessarily a gifted pianist, Yared was interested in reading music. When Yared was 14, his piano teacher died and Yared replaced him as the organist of Université Saint-Joseph. Yared used the university's library to read the works of Johann Sebastian Bach, Robert Schumann, and many other composers. This extensive reading inspired his first original composition, a piano waltz.
Yared gained a degree in law and did not formally study music at the university level until he traveled to France in 1969 to attend the École Normale de Musique de Paris as a non-registered student. There he learned music composition from Henri Dutilleux.
At the end of 1971, Yared went to Brazil to visit his uncle and was asked by the president of the World Federation of Light Music Festivals to write a song to represent the Lebanese in the Rio de Janeiro Song Festival. The song he composed went on to win first prize. While in Brazil, he also performed with a small orchestra. Yared subsequently said that his time in Brazil greatly influenced his work.
In 1975, he arranged the album Minacantalucio for the popular Italian singer Mina.
He then went back to France, where he met and collaborated with the Costa Brothers, Jacques Dutronc, Françoise Hardy, Charles Aznavour, Mireille Mathieu, and numerous other musicians. This was a prolific period for the composer and he wrote nearly 3,000 pieces over a span of about six years. His contributions included a number of radio and TV jingles, such as TF1 news jingles and an episode on the series In the Tracks of.
Among the collaborations with Françoise Hardy, Yared produced and arranged her 1977 album Star, composing two songs of the album, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qQ4kHpdZhI Chanson sur toi et nous] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fet5Db7-hJo Fatiguée].

Film scores
Yared is best known for his collaborations with the late Anthony Minghella. His first collaboration with Minghella was the 1996 film The English Patient, which was highly acclaimed and won him an Oscar for Best Original Score.{{cite journal|last=Kosovsky|first=Bob|url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/4487447|title=Reviewed Works: Gabriel Yared's The English Patient: A Film Score Guide by Heather Laing|journal=Notes|volume=61|date=2005|pages=749–752|doi=10.1353/not.2005.0019 |jstor=4487447 |url-access=subscription}} He composed the scores for all of Minghella's subsequent films and the music for the television series The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, co-created by Minghella and Richard Curtis.
Aside from his work with Minghella, Yared scored a number of other films, including Betty Blue (1986), Map of the Human Heart (1992), City of Angels (1998), Message in a Bottle (1999), Autumn in New York (2000), The Next Best Thing (2000), Possession (2002), and Bon Voyage (2003). He had a notable collaboration with René Laloux in the late 1980s on Gandahar{{Cite journal|url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/27106985|jstor=27106985|title=Music and Soundscapes in René Laloux's Animated Feature Films|author=Guilloux, Florian|year=2019|journal=Lied und populäre Kultur / Song and Popular Culture|volume=64|pages=183–200}} and How Wang-fo was saved produced at the SEK Studio in North Korea.
Cassandra Clare reported in August 2012 that Yared was tapped to compose the score for The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. However, he was eventually replaced on the project by Atli Örvarsson.{{cite web|url=http://filmmusicreporter.com/2013/04/15/atli-orvarsson-to-score-the-mortal-instruments-city-of-bones/ |title=Atli Örvarsson to Score 'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' |publisher=Film Music Reporter |access-date=2014-05-15}}

In 2004, Yared's score for the film Troy was rejected less than a month before the film's opening as a result of the poor reception by a test screening audience.[https://www.screendaily.com/features/gabriel-yared-on-scoring-betty-blue-working-with-minghella-and-being-fired-from-troy/5154155.article Gabriel Yared on scoring ‘Betty Blue’, working with Minghella and being fired from ‘Troy’] The test audience were said to have found Yared's music too "brassy and bold". James Horner, the composer of the scores for such films as Braveheart and Titanic was then hired to create a replacement score in less than four weeks.
Yared expressed his dismay at the score's rejection in an open letter which was posted on his website. He said that the score which the test audience had heard was not yet finished and mixed properly, and that the studio had given him no opportunity to alter his score in light of the audience's reaction.
Warner Bros. still owns the rights to Yared's Troy score and an official recording is not currently available and may never be (although selections from the score were briefly posted on Yared's website and private promotional CD).{{Citation needed|date=January 2012}}
Film score critic Christian Clemmensen of Filmtracks.com felt that Yared's work for Troy was far superior to what Horner had written, giving Horner's score a 3-star rating and Yared's a 5-star rating, saying that it was "outstanding," and called it the "pinnacle of Yared's career."{{cite web|url=http://www.filmtracks.com/titles/troy.html |title=Troy (Gabriel Yared/James Horner) |publisher=Filmtracks |date=2004-05-11 |access-date=2014-05-15}}
Ballet scores
Yared created the score to the narrative ballet Raven Girl choreographed to the Royal Ballet by Wayne McGregor after the eponymous story by Audrey Niffenegger.{{cite news|last=Mackrell|first=Judith|title=This week's new dance|newspaper=The Guardian|location=London|date=17 May 2013|url=https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2013/may/18/this-weeks-new-dance}}
