## Biography

Loek Dikker (born 28 February 1944) is a Dutch composer, pianist and conductor. After classical piano training he turned to jazz following a 1959 televised performance by Horace Silver and Sonny Rollins. He performed with musicians including Hans Dulfer, Theo Loevendie, Oliver Nelson, Cannonball Adderley and Don Byas, and in the mid-1970s founded the Waterland Ensemble.

Dikker wrote his first film score in 1981 and has since composed for more than sixty films. He is known for his work on *The Fourth Man* (1983), *Body Parts* (1991), *The Babysitter* (1995) and *Rosenstrasse* (2003). He received the Silver Desk for best Dutch film music for *The Fourth Man* in 1983 and the Golden Calf in 1990 for his body of work. Dikker founded and chairs Muziekinstituut MultiMedia and is a board member of the Federation of Film and Audiovisual Composers of Europe. His sister Marianne Dikker is a screenwriter and director.
