REFERENCES - COMPOSITION
"12 Minuten für Nosferatu" ("12 Minutes For Nosferatu")
I set to music 12 minutes of the Murnau silent movie "Nosferatu - eine Symphonie des Grauens" for a silent movie concert by the electronic rock band Picture Palace music - the part of the movie set to music is Hutter's journey to the castle.
"Immer, wenn es regnet" & "Bis der letzte Vorhang fällt"
("Everytime It Rains" & "Until The Final Curtain Falls")
I wrote these two songs in 2008 for my band at that time, "Apartment 21". The recordings were made live at Café Hofperle in the Neuköllner Oper.
The lyrics for "Immer, wenn es regnet" are by me. The lyrics for "Bis der letzte Vorhang fällt" are by me and the singer of the band, Torsten Leube.
"Hommage an Kilar" ("Homage To Kilar")
"Hommage an Kilar" ("Homage To Kilar")
In 2007 I composed an homage to the great composer Wojciech Kilar, taking the „Opening Titles“ from Kilar's soundtrack to Polanski's „The Ninth Gate“ as a model. Later and in reduced orchestration, the piece of music would become the "Tignarier Theme" in the musical „SANGREAL - die neunte Prüfung“ ("SANGREAL - The Ninth Trial").
Fragments and rejected stuff
A sketch for a little hommage to Danny Elfman that sadly was never used anywhere...
Two versions of music for a Converse commercial that were both not used.
The video can be found here - I deemed my musical approaches more suitable, but sometimes opinions differ...
Theme music for a kind of Tamagotchi app that was never used - with a layout somewhere between "Happy Tree Friends" and surf rock...
"Sonata for Flute and Piano"
In 2006 I composed a Sonata for Flute and Piano for a concert in Brandenburg an der Havel. The work iridesces between ironic neo classicism and antiquated modernism. It enthused the performers as well as the audience.
"Musically flawless - and chapeau! - terrific arrangements."
Rainer Rubbert, composer, about "SANGREAL - Die neunte Prüfung"
"I also liked the compositions; particularly the melodies are always catchy without being platitudinous."
Carsten Niemann, music journalist, about "Der Zylinder des Columbus"
