BIOGRAPHY

Christoph Zirngibl was born in November 1980 in Regensburg, Germany. He got in touch with music at the age of 6 taking drum lessons followed by piano lessons later on. Until his graduation from high school he worked as drummer, piano player and composer/arranger for different projects of various stylistics. After joining the German Army Band for the duration of two years in 2001 his dream of composing music for films started to take shape when he was accepted at the highly acclaimed University of Music and Performing Arts where he studied Film Scoring under famous german composers Andreas Weidinger and Enjott 
Schneider until 2007. 

Yet during his studies he was composing the scores for successful german feature-films, tv-films, tv-series and independent productions. Among other awards and nominations he received the German Filmmusic Newcomer Award of the Franz Grothe Foundation in 2006 as well as the Jerry Goldsmith Award "Best Young Composer" at the International Filmmusic Congres in Ùbeda, Spain, in 2007 for his score from "Lethe"
