A native
of Hungary, film composer Adam Balazs emerged into the international
film scene from his hometown, Los Angeles by scoring multi-award
winning, critically acclaimed movies that had one thing in common:
a distinctive, unique musical world.
Aside from putting a musical signature to all his scores, Adam’s
impressive musical versatility is demonstrated in a wide array
of independent and studio-backed projects that include the score
for THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT 3: REVELATIONS (distributed
by Lionsgate), the score for EL CAMINO
starring Elisabeth Moss and Wes Studi, the
multi-award winning THE ELEPHANT KING starring
Ellen Burstyn and Tate Ellington (Official
Selection - Tribeca Film Festival), themes
and additional music for the SECRET OF MOONACRE
(UK distribution by Warner Brothers UK) with Ioan Gruffudd
and Natascha McElhone, the score for CALFORNIA
DREAMING starring Lea Thompson and Dave
Foley and the award-winning documentary MY NAME
IS ALAN, to name a few.
Adam’s music was featured in the soundtrack of BEDAZZLED
(featuring Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley)
and in the hit-show FRIENDS (NBC), among others.
Adam also wrote music for over one hundred spots for HBO
(network and off-channel image), CINEMAX (complete
network re-design for Cinemax, and all multiplex channels),
and his collaboration with noted CGI company, Digic
Pictures resulted in the youtube sensation DRAGON
AGE 2 INTRO (Electronic Arts). Adam’s commercial
credits include NBC-NEWS, COCA-COLA,
SIRIUS X-ACT, CALVIN KLEIN
and ARMANI.
Adam is also the first Hungarian composer to premiere his work,
PATH OF THE EXTRAORDINARY at Carnegie
Hall since Bela Bartok premiered his CONCERTO
FOR ORCHESTRA, January 11, 1944.
