Between them, WME and Allegro have represented six of the past seven Academy Award winners for Best Original Score.
Allegro’s clients include Hildur Guðnadóttir (Joker, Chernobyl), Volker Bertelmann (All Quiet on the Western Front, Conclave), Clément Ducol and Camille (Emilia Perez), Dustin O’Halloran (Eleanor the Great, Lion) and Natalie Holt (Loki).
WME’s roster includes Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross, Ludwig Goransson, Jonny Greenwood, Max Richter and Mica Levi.
What they said:
Bradley Rainey: “Allegro has built a reputation for deep artistic integrity and a truly bespoke approach to client development. Their roster is both world-class and forward-thinking, and they represent artists whose work is redefining how music drives narrative. Together, we look forward to creating expanded avenues for growth across film, television, games, and emerging platforms.”
Patty Macmillan: “From the beginning, our agency has been about meaningful relationships, creative trust, and long-term career guidance. WME shares those values, and this partnership allows us to build on our foundation while offering clients the scale and reach of a global powerhouse.”
