Klaus Badelt

Klaus Badelt，德國人，2000年被他的老鄉Hans Zimmer看中并帶到了好萊塢，在Hans的MV工作室工作，協助Hans完成了《The Pledge 誓言》、《Hannibal 漢尼伯》、《Invincible 納粹制造》等電影的配樂。2002年，Klaus Badelt第一次獨立完成了電影《The Time Machine》的配樂，依靠一曲曲氣勢磅礴的樂曲，一鳴驚人，確立了自己在好賴塢的地位。隨后，Klaus Badelt再接再厲，在近幾年里譜寫了《K-19: The Widowmaker》、《The Recruit》、《Pirates of the Caribbean》、《Constantine》《無極》以及今年的《Poseidon 新海神號》。 Klaus Badelt 是近年來電影配樂的有名作曲家，先后為電影 Pearl Harbor(珍珠港), Hannibal(漢尼拔), Mission: Impossible II(不可能的任務2)以及 Gladiator(神鬼戰士)配樂。可謂是大有來頭。The Time Machine 的 OST 可以說是非常的雄偉壯闊，有些地方可以用驚天動地來形容(動態很大)。是那種典型的好萊塢管弦樂風格，這也繼承了 Klaus Badelt 作曲的風格。比如 Gladiator(神鬼戰士)和 Pearl Harbor(珍珠港)，第一首曲子 01.Professor Alexander Hartdegen 一上來就是氣勢恢宏的法國號群奏。從 Gladiator和The Time Machine 這兩張 OST 來看，Klaus Badelt 不但擅長管弦樂的配器，而且擅長穿插民族樂器，特別是打擊樂。另外，人聲合唱也是這兩張專輯的一大兩點，不過這點看來在 The Time Machine OST 裏表現得尤為突出，聽聽 08.Eloi 和 15.God Speed 就知道了，灑脫而感人肺腑的旋律簡直讓人欲罷不能...整個配樂基本上是圍繞兩個旋律在進行,一個是 01 中就可以聽到那段法國號群奏的旋律,另一個就是 08.Eloi 中的女聲合唱實在讓人動容。整張 CD 音質應該非常好，用來做試音碟都綽綽有余了。另外，提醒大家一下，聽 07.Time Traval 的時候小心不要被嚇到了。 Klaus Badelt (born 1967) is a German composer, best known for composing film scores.
