Julia Thomsen's composition "Romantic Embrace" earned her a nomination in the Best New Age Song category at the Los Angeles World Entertainment Awards, placing her among an international field of artists recognised for their work across the entertainment industry. The awards, which cover a wide range of genres and disciplines, drew entries from around the world, making the nomination a considerable achievement for a British composer working in the contemporary classical space.
The nomination marks another significant milestone for the London based composer, who has spent years building one of the most distinctive catalogues in contemporary piano music. With over 18 million streams on Spotify, her work sits at the intersection of neoclassical and new age composition, drawing listeners in with arrangements that feel considered and unhurried. Her pieces carry a warmth that is immediately recognisable, and her approach to blending structure with a more open, reflective sensibility has earned her a following that continues to grow.
Her music has found a home on BBC Radio London, BBC Radio 3, and BBC Radio 4, and has appeared across flagship broadcasts on Sky Sports Italia, Channel 4, and Apple TV. It is the kind of reach that speaks to how broadly her compositions have connected, not just with established classical audiences but with people encountering this style of music for the first time. As one of the UK's leading voices in contemporary classical and neoclassical composition, Julia has built a body of work that draws on tradition without being defined by it. British composers are too rarely represented at international award platforms of this scale, and her nomination in the Best New Age Song category puts her work in front of an audience and an industry that is paying close attention.
Julia begins 2026 with "Forever," a composition for piano and live strings that continues the direction she has been building toward. It is a strong opening to what looks to be another important year in a career that is clearly gathering momentum.
