HANS GEORG KRONES
Composer for media
“There is only one real happiness in life, and that is the happiness of creating.”
– Frederick Delius –
Have you ever noticed the importance of music in a film? How an emotion, a feeling or an information is transported subconsciously even after the first seconds of a film?
Hi, I am Hans and I am a composer for media based in Salzburg – Austria.
The enthusiasm for film music came in my early childhood with the Walt Disney classics. Their fantastic way of supporting the stories with emotional, versatile, colorful music and great arrangements is something I always try to achieve in a project.
In my early ages I started to play the drums, the guitar and the piano. After playing in some bands, I got more and more into the world of filmmusic. In 2012 I decided to enter the professional filmmusic industry and started to study music at the University of Applied Sciences in Salzburg, which I completed successfully. Ever since I have been composing music for several clients.
Together with film directors I am working on the concept and a common vision of the music and its effect on the film:
- What is the overall musical style of the film?
- Which role does the music play in the film?
- Where should be music, where not and why? (Spotting session)
- What are the characteristics of a certain character and how can this be transcribed musically?
- What is the subtext of a particular scene?
Answering these questions is my daily business – and I love it!
So feel free to get in touch and let us do great things together!

Der Dunkle Reigen
directed by Dominik Bücheler: Winter 1919. After World War I, Agnes and her mentor Jadwiga reach a far off Austrian village. Although initially rejected and denounced by the people there, they help with their medical knowledge. They helped Frieda – the daughter of the mesmer – to heal her blindness. Because of this, Frieda and Agnes come closer. So close that the village does not want to accept this kind of sacrilege. In the struggle for recognition, morality and social norms, everyone loses in the end.
Hybris
Hybris is a sports documentation directed by Cornelia Ohnmacht. It deals with the life of athletes. Three episodic portraits show the reasons of excessive practice of sports and how it affects people in their everyday life. Dealing with your own body becomes fundamental questioned in the midst of today’s meritocracy.
The fucking lack of love
directed by Jana Sulm: Emma is the successful head of a film production company in Vienna. Together with her daughter Luna, she lives in the independent Viennese cultural society. One day Blanka, an Eastern European, enters her life. She comes to Vienna to work as an assistant in Emma’s office and to leave her hometown Bratislava, where she has lived a monotonous life. Luna searches for love and separation from her narcissistic mother and finds it in Blanka. Luna, on the other hand, confirms Blanka’s uniqueness through the trust she places in her. This story is embedded in two different social milieus in today’s central Europe.
Scavenger (Short Animation)
directed by Romana Grünfelder, Nora Hänsenberger, Leon V. Schmidl, Martin Reitwießner: In a world destroyed by war and pollution a lone woman is fighting for her own, and humanity’s survival. Led by whispers that, despite of all the destruction, one plant could have survived, she searches the remains of cities and buildings for clues. Such a search leads her to a long forgotten and buried ruin. There she will have to prove her intelligence and her dedication to ensuring the endurance of the human race.
