The music of composer Gregory Smith covers a wide range of the musical world entertaining thousands every day and night at Disney theme parks while reaching millions on television networks throughout the world.

His family/educational symphonic works are among the most performed in the genre and have been honored with over 1,000 performances by more than 200 orchestras worldwide. Orchestras such as the Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Houston, Cincinnati symphonies, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and Rochester Philharmonic, along with numerous orchestras in the United Kingdom, China, South Korea, Germany, Canada, Greece, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and elsewhere have embraced Smith’s blended style of entertainment and education. Many of his works in this genre were premiered at the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music and conducted by his longtime champion, Marin Alsop.

Enjoying a long association with the Walt Disney Company, Smith has written themes, arrangements, and songs for their animated features, movies, and all of their worldwide theme parks. Notable among these is Wishes, the Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom fireworks spectacular that ran for 14 years. And Dreamlights, a reimagined symphonic version of the famous Electrical Parade now entering its 24th year at Tokyo Disneyland.

Smith’s broadcast credits include composing scores for the Star Trek TV shows, Warner Bros. Cartoons, themes for CBS, TNT, ABC, Headline News Sports, ESPN, and major sports teams including the NY Mets, the New Jersey Devils, and the Tampa Bay Lightning. On the grandest scale, Smith composed the music for the Salt Lake Paralympic opening ceremonies broadcast worldwide by ABC.

Recent projects include new original scores for a pair of shows at the newly opened Sea World Abu Dhabi, songs and arrangements for a live show at Tokyo Disneyland, and a synchronized, ambient score for the new exhibit, “Life” at the Orlando Science Center.
