Her compositions for the award-winning vocal band Tuuletar have been playlisted in radio shows all over the world and her compositions “La Foret Vide”, “Polar Night” and “Soua” were placed in several medias, such as TV-series Rain (Netflix) and two independent short films. Her
co-arrangements for Tuuletar have been placed in trailers and series such as
Game of Thrones (HBO), Monarca (Netflix) and Wentworth (FOX).
Ms. Blom has composed, arranged and orchestrated music for big band and chamber choirs and she’s done commissioned composing work for commercials. She has also written music for theatre and dance performances and is currently writing a score for a stage play which will premier in 2025.
