Igor's Hollywood Riviera Real Estate News January, 2013

When most kids watch Star Wars or Indiana Jones for the first time, what they remember most is the action, the drama and the visual effects. What left an indelible imprint on Christopher Lennertz were the grand symphonic scores. Watching those movies was Chris’ introduction to the musical genius of composer John Williams, who also scored ET, Jaws, Jurassic Park and many more major feature films.

Fascinating Riviera Residents Award Winning Composer Calls the Riviera Home When most kids watch Star Wars or Indiana Jones for the first time, what they remember most is the action, the drama and the visual effects. What left an indelible imprint on Christopher Lennertz were the grand symphonic scores. Watching those movies was Chris’ introduction to the musical genius of composer John Williams, who also scored ET, Jaws, Jurassic Park and Chris began his musical training at the age of 9, first with the trumpet and then the guitar. He studied music in high school and later at USC’s Thornton School of Music, where he still acts as a guest lecturer for the film and music schools. Chris also uses his musical talent for charitable causes. Most recently, he spearheaded A Symphony of Hope: The Haiti Project. Chris brought together 25 of Hollywood’s leading composers to collaboratively write a symphony for a benefit CD and concert which has raised $100,000 for Haiti’s earthquake relief. Chris and his wife, Shannon, moved to the Hollywood Riviera in 2009 after living in Playa del Rey. They spotted the area while strolling through the Riviera Village and decided to take a closer look. Once they saw the close community, the great schools and the beautiful treelined streets, they knew this would be the perfect place to raise a family (their daughter, Neave, is 4 and another child is on the way). An avid sailor, Chris also likes being close to the Harbor.

Chris couldn’t get enough and was soon pestering his parents to take him to see Williams conduct the Boston Pops. Thirty-plus years later, Chris is an acclaimed composer in his own right, and John Williams, while still being his idol, is also a colleague. Chris’ film credits include Alvin & The Chipmunks, HOP, Think Like A Man and Horrible Bosses. He also scores television, including 2012’s hit series Revolution (NBC), as well as numerous video games and records. In 2006, Chris was nominated for an Emmy Award for his score to Supernatural (The CW). My family has lived in the Hollywood Riviera for more than 50 years.
