Born in 1975 in Münster, André Feldhaus began his musical education on the piano. In the 1990s he founded the German punk band Mother‘s Ruin, an outfit which toured and released singles and albums. During his studies in Liverpool and Bremen he started composing music for films and formed collaborations with up and coming directors. After graduating in 2004, he started working as a freelance composer. Since then, he has contributed to the scores for nearly 130 films, including major television work and cinema releases, among them “Snapshot with Che” which won the World Gold Medal at the New York Festival, and “Nordstrand” that was nominated for the Max Ophüls Award.
