Volker Bertelmann

Volker Bertelmann, widely known by his stage name Hauschka, is a distinguished German composer and pianist celebrated for his compelling work in the realm of contemporary classical music and scores for film and television. Born in Kreuztal, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, on February 11, 1966, Bertelmann has garnered critical acclaim for his inventive approach to the prepared piano – a technique whereby objects are placed on the strings or hammers of the piano to produce an arresting array of sounds that challenge traditional conceptions of the instrument.

Bertelmann's portfolio is rich with a variety of soundtracks that showcase his unique talent for encapsulating emotion through music. His oeuvre includes compositions for critically acclaimed movies and TV shows, evidenced in recent releases such as "One Life" (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) and "Unwanted" (Music from the Original TV Series). His work on "All Quiet on the Western Front" (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) particularly stands out and is indicative of his prowess in translating complex narratives into evocative musical scores. With a career marked by an extensive discography that traverses a spectrum of genres and themes, Volker Bertelmann remains at the forefront of contemporary composition and musical storytelling.
