Life
Robin Hoffmann was born on February 18, 1984, in Großenhain, in former German Democratic Republic. His father Thomas Hoffmann is a cellist and pianist who played in professional rock bands "SET" and "Gong".
At the age of 7, Hoffmann began playing the piano, starting to write first compositions at the age of 11. As part of his A-level exams he wrote a composition for symphonic orchestra which got performed by the Neue Elbland Philharmonie in 2001 under Peter Fanger.
After graduating from school he began writing music for amateur film groups, film students and computer game projects.
From 2004–2008 he attended the Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber where he studied composition, arrangement and piano under Rainer Lischka, Marko Lackner, Lars Juling, Clemens Kühn and Jochen Aldinger.
While still studying he was commissioned to write the orchestral music for the Swiss/UK film production Save Angel Hope. One year later he teamed up with Swiss composer Moritz Schneider and founded the music composition and production company "Nachos and Cheese" and worked on several central European film productions since then.
In 2009, Hoffmann was commissioned to write the music for the Musical "Dällebach Kari" which had its premiere in 2010 at the Thuner Seespiele in Thun, Switzerland and was well received by the public and critics.
Besides his work for film, musicals and media, Robin has been writing concert music for ensembles and artists. He has worked with the London Symphony Orchestra which recorded his Violin Concerto for Anna Karkowska in Abbey Road Studios in 2010 as well as the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt, Dresdner Jugendsinfonieorchester, Robert Balzar Trio, KungFu Horns and Chris Muzik.
