Klaus Badelt

Julie's right! It had huge lifts from scores such as The Rock and Gladiator plus in the 3rd soundtrack it clearly states that Hans wrote the original themes to "The Black Pearl" in a day and a night.

I don't care what any of you say, Hans Is BY FAR the better composer, he did lion King, Prince of Egypt, Gladiator, Hannibal, and The Da Vinci Code... C'MON!

yeah so Klaus wasn't Hans' apprentice.

No. Klaus did the first one then Hans did the 2nd and 3rd so he was using Klaus' music which isn't fair cuz Hans gets all the credit for something Klaus wrote. So its really Klaus who is the amazing one.

"The Peacemaker" score is awesome!!!

the medallion calls , my favourite

He's good. But he never wrote the Pirate themes. Hans did over night then handed them off to Klaus to finish them up. He basically one of Hans' apprentices, like Harry-Gregson Williams.

Badelt said he didn't do the others because he never does sequels because he thinks there boring.

I love Klaus Badelt!!! He is the best ever!!!!!

This man gave the world "He's A Pirate". I love him.
