Can anyone include the information who has done the score to this version? The music helps to make the movie even more breath-taking.

I think the added musical score is by art zoyd, they also composed music for other silent movies like: nosferatu, häxan and metropolis Masterpiece dns001 2009-06-10 17:37:07 2009-06-10 17:37:07 5 Like most restored silent films, "Faust" can be seen in several different versions of varying lengths, and with different soundtracks. There was the original German version, a longer American version that feels padded, and musical scores that feel either perfect or arbitrarily slapped on in a way that either works or doesn't. The version uploaded here is a matter of preference. If you've seen the KINO version with a score by Timothy Brock, you'll feel this version has an evocative score that doesn't really match the visuals. It SOUNDS good but it's just there as aural wallpaper, disconnected to the onscreen action. I mean, it's moody and appropriate but it's there on TOP of the film - not working WITH it. Sure, you can watch "The Wizard of OZ" with Pink Floyd playing but that means it's what they had in mind. Also - and this is a big drawback - this particular version is projected WAY too fast. People in silent films didn't move any faster than they do today. This is a great introduction to Murnau's "Faust" but there are better versions out there. Great film - especially the first half hour - but it wouldn't hurt to hunt down the KINO/Brockman version. One final note: this version preserves the original German title cards/intertitles and that's a BIG plus! Not the Best Presentation, BUT . . .! B.
