Here are some sketches and ideas of several projects that I've been working on, including pitches etc.

All files are sample productions.

One Minute Hero (Sample Version)

Specialized in working on projects with real orchestras, I have more than 20 years of experience.

I have worked on film scores for many international productions, including the Golden Globe 2024 nominee Suzume, Star Wars Visions, Save Angel Hope, Tell, A War Within, and Liebling, lass uns scheiden. I co-composed the multi-award-winning musical Dällebach Kari, (co-)arranged the hit shows The One and Vivid at Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin, and worked on highly successful game music scores such as Batman – Arkham Shadow, Lineage W, Anno 1404, Black Prophecy, and Halo Legends. My scores for Treasure Trackers, Hero and A Father’s Job have won several awards around the world.

Besides my work in media, I also write music for several international artists, including Chaka Khan, Anastacia, Gary Barlow, Ronan Keating, Bonnie Tyler, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, the London Symphony Orchestra, and others. I won a Golden Record for my arrangements for Alex Christensen.

I hold a diploma in composition, arrangement, and piano from the music university in Dresden, Germany.

 

Biography Robert Weinstein:

Robert Weinstein was born in New York into a family of artists and musicians. His grandfather Philip Sklar, was the principle bassist under the great Maestro Arturo Toscanini and The NBC Symphony Orchestra. Raised in this atmosphere Robert inevitably followed and pursued his education at The Eastman School of Music (Gene Bertoncini), The Manhattan School of Music (Sharon Isbin), Ithaca College and York University studying Classical and Jazz guitar (Tuck Andres, Chuck Loeb, John Scofield, Fred Hand), composition (Andy Brick, Edgar Grana), arranging (Don Sebeskey), ethnomusicology, and film.

Over the years that followed Robert collaborated with many filmmakers, dancers, and musicians performing live, recording extensively and creating unique scores for a myriad of projects. Special creative alliances were formed and gave birth to a highly innovative and unique circle of musicians called upon in his work for commissioned scores. Principle members include maverick-Grammy award winning cellist David Darling (Paul Winter Consort, music for Jean Luc Goddard, Wim Wender, Ashes and Snow), master multi-woodwind instrumentalist Paul Butler, and renowned world-percussionist John Marshall.

Collaborations with David Darling include Musical Massage: Balance, Musical Massage: In Tune , and Open Window . Recent collaborations in film include “Sisters”  produced and directed by Manuel Lopez, “Downsizing of The God’s” , a Vag’ film produced by jsenko productions, “To Remember Him” a film about Indian Spiritual master Meher Baba produced by Shiva Sawyer for which he created a unique piece composed for tabla and orchestra. . In the spring of 2009 the film, “ Peter Matthiessen: No Boundaries” directed by Jeff Sewald premièred to a sold out audience at Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) for which Robert completed a compelling score. The film was broadcast nationally on PBS and has lead to an EMMY nomination and productions on other great literary luminaries. In 2010 Robert contributed to Gothic Storm, the brainchild of British composer Dan Graham with US licensing through Hollywood publisher PSI records. Robert’s compositions are featured on these albums used in major Hollywood productions, most recently appearing in,:
