I am Kristina Boos, a composer, pianist, and cinematic sound architect blending my piano mastery with a passion for crafting evocative scores that bring stories to life on screen. A German national based in Frankfurt, I fuse traditional classical training with cross-cultural influences to create immersive soundscapes where melody meets narrative. My journey began in Almaty, Kazakhstan, at the Bayseitova Music School for Gifted Children, where I studied piano from 1995 to 2008. After moving to Germany in 2008, I pursued advanced studies at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst (HfMDK) Frankfurt, earning a Diploma in Music Education and, later, a Master of Music in Solo Piano Performance. I’ve earned international competition prizes, built a versatile career as a performer and educator, and now focus on scoring scenes with emotional precision while collaborating across disciplines to tell powerful visual stories.

    uniE608 The Sound of Asia
    The Sound of Asia is an original composition crafted with Logic Pro, blending the hauntingly expressive tones of the Chinese Erhu violin with a modern beat, delicate piano, and lush orchestral elements. This rare fusion creates a vibrant and evocative soundscape, weaving exotic cultural influences with contemporary cinematic flair. Enhanced by an AI-generated video, the track showcases my ability to create emotionally resonant music that bridges tradition and modernity, perfect for narrative-driven film and series projects.
