Christophe Beck
From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Artist
Christophe Beck was born in Montreal in 1968. He studied at Yale University and then film composition at the University of Southern California, under Jerry Goldsmith, among others. His breakthrough was the music for the second season of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which won him an Emmy. After that he worked a great deal on comedies, such as the Hangover films (2009–2013). For Disney he wrote the instrumental score of Frozen (2013) and Frozen II (2019). For Frozen he received an Annie Award. For Marvel he wrote the three Ant-Man films and the series WandaVision and Hawkeye (both 2021). He works from Santa Monica, California.
Listening
Listening tip. Notice how in Frozen he uses orchestra and choir for the fairy-tale atmosphere, and how in Ant-Man he sets a short, rhythmic hero motif in the brass.
