How to contact a composer
If you need to contact a composer directly, you can find out their representatives by going to the Hollywood Reporter's Who Is Who In Composing Web Site. You need to subscribe to the HR to use this service.
Don't contact the agency simply if you are a collector and want a specific promo by a certain composer, you will not get very far. Only contact them if you have a legit reason to get in touch with the composer.
