A Bio-Filmographical Interview with Film-Music Composer Anđelko Klobučar

A conversation with composer Anđelko Klobučar about his experience as a composer and conductor of film music.
Anđelko Klobučar first came into contact with film music at Dubrava film when he, as a musical advisor, added »background sound« to films shot without sound by using sounds and music from the archives at Dubrava film. The first films he composed music for were The Motorcycle Chase by B. Majer and the especially demanding film The Emperor’s New Cloths by A. Babaja.

In addition to documentary and feature films, he composed music for the animated films of A. Marks, V. Mimica and Z. Bourek. His last film was The Stone Gates by A. Babaja. In the conversation, Klobučar gives advice for achieving stylistic features in music adapted for atmosphere effect, as well as his relationship with electronic tools that help in composing film music.
