About Alan Menken

Artist Biography

Alan Menken wurde vor allem als Komponist für zahlreiche Disney-Hits wie Arielle, die Meerjungfrau oder Aladdin bekannt. Er fing als Komponist für eine Musical-Version für Kurt Vonneguts "Gott segne Sie, Mr. Rosewater" an, für die er 1978 von Texter Howard Ashman hinzugezogen wurde. Einige Jahre später erlebten Menken und Ashman den Durchbruch mit ihrer Off-Broadway-Version von Roger Cormans Der kleine Horrorladen, die 1986 verfilmt wurde. Menken begann, für Disney zu arbeiten, wo er neben den genannten Filmen unter anderem auch Die Schöne und das Biest, Pocahontas und Hercules vertonte. Für viele seiner Disney-Scores erhielt er Oscar-Nominierungen und -Auszeichnungen. Nebenbei blieb er als Bühnenkomponist tätig, unter anderem für Broadway-Musicals wie King David und Sister Act. 2017 führte er seine Komposition von Die Schöne und das Biest für die Disney-Neuverfilmung fort.
