Ethan Toavs

My music is all about exploring new worlds! I combine western orchestral and cinematic styles with influences from the harmonies, rhythms, and instruments of a variety of musical cultures.

​

I release my music on Bandcamp and my YouTube channel. I also create unofficial arrangements of songs from movies & T.V. shows such as My Little Pony.

​

In addition to my personal projects, I accept commissions from authors, artists, and other creators who want to have music that breathes life into their stories, characters, and worlds.

​

I received my M.M. in Contemporary Media and Film Composition from the Eastman School of Music, where I studied with professors Mark Watters and Dave Rivello. I received my B.A. from Coastal Carolina University, where I studied classical composition with Dr. Donald Sloan and piano performance with Dr. Philip Powell.

​

I love the color pink, horses, macaroni and cheese, Mozart’s Symphony No. 41, kid’s movies, My Little Pony, and the liveliness of urban life.
