ABOUT
Music is a place—a space where sound, emotion, and meaning meet. Smiling Lizard Music was founded on this idea: not just to produce music, but to make stories audible.
Smiling Lizard Music is the project of musician, composer/songwriter and author Christian Jahl. His work combines composition and sound aesthetics to create pieces that support cinematic, narrative and brand-related projects – precise, individual and with a clear eye for dramaturgy.
An image from Rilke's "Love Song" accompanies this work: the A bow stroke that draws one voice from two strings .
It describes what drives Smiling Lizard Music: combining elements into something whole - music, lyrics, production, published works.
In addition to composition, the profile also includes music supervision, publishing structures, and musicological consulting . This allows projects to be developed both musically and conceptually.
Smiling Lizard Music collaborates with other composers and has a long-term partnership with a renowned music publisher that has been in existence for almost 100 years.
These connections enable a professional, reliable and artistically integrative way of working - from individual tracks to film music to extensive productions.
Ultimately, it's always about creating music that carries meaning. Or, as we say: music is more than that.
