Wolfram de Marco’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Wolfram de Marco was born in the Year of the Horse. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Horse love to roam free. They’re energetic, self-reliant, money-wise, and they enjoy traveling, love and intimacy. They’re great at seducing, sharp-witted, impatient and sometimes seen as a drifter. Compatible with Dog or Tiger.
Wolfram de Marco was born into a family where music was a part of daily life, with his education beginning at age six with violin and piano at 13. After his luthier grandfather introduced him to the first chords on a guitar, it became the instrument that called his name.
At 15 years old, he began to study classical guitar, in time winning important awards and ultimately leading to a professional career as a classical guitarist. Following five years of classical guitar and piano studies at the Hochschule Für Musik in Würzburg, he found work in Frankfurt as a session guitarist, arranger, composer and producer for music in advertising and corporate movies.
During his time in Frankfurt he also released several Electronica and Drum & Bass tracks. However after writing his first score for a movie and a TV series in Germany, he decided to concentrate on film music and moved to Los Angeles in 1999.
After a few years of struggle, hard work and finally establishing a reputation with the music for an award winning short film, his talents were recognized and in 2003 he was selected to participate in the prestigious ASCAP Film scoring Workshop.
The same year he started working as an arranger and additional composer on several blockbuster movies, including "Pirates of the Caribbean, Curse Of The Black Pearl", "Constantine", "Catwoman", "16 Blocks" and "Poseidon".
Finding that he was not satisfied with the limitations of only writing "additional music", he earned the chance to score his first feature "The Wedding Party" directed by Oscar nominated director Dominique Deruddere.
This score was recorded in 2005 in Studio 2 at Abbey Road in London and was the beginning of a long string of movies that garnered critical and commercial success. A desire to push the envelope on his talent lead to scoring the original Belgium, record breaking box office hit, LOFT, and the German TV station ZDF trusted him with the ambitious and very successful production of their 2011 miniseries "Schicksalsjahre".
In 2012 his composition "Fantasia For A Forgetful Angel" for guitar and string quartet was performed by Prof. Jürgen Ruck and members of the Sharoun Ensemble. It premiered at the International Guitar Week in Ansbach and was recorded and aired by the Bayrischen Rundfunk.
This same year he had the opportunity to score a childhood favorite book series from Enyd Blyton- which became the very successful German franchise of "Famous Five l - lV". He most recently finished the score for Jamie Dornan's star-turn in "Racing Hearts" aka "Flying Home" (picked up by Universal Pictures), which saw his return to collaboration with Dominique Deruddere.
Gifted with a talent for finding just the right emotional complexity that a scene needs, Wolfram de Marco also knows when to allow silence to be the best companion. His directors have counted on him to create themes and atmospheres that seamlessly bind tension, building arcs, crescendi and the ability to keep audiences focused with baited breath for a release.
Having worked with orchestras and musicians in cities as varied as Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Munich, Prague and Macedonia, his musical individuality is apparent and a force to be reckoned with. Wolfram de Marco lives with his wife Marie-Alise Recasner in Windsor Hills, California.
