Concert Music:
His classical pieces are beautifully wrought, and include a lovely set of works for clarinet and orchestra (which he released as All The Luck, in 2008), several sets of piano works, and Having an Atonal Christmas, for string quartet and harp, as well as soundtrack music for silent films, including an inventive flute and guitar score for The Hunchback of Notre Dame and a piano concerto that doubled as a score for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and that the pianist Anthony DeMare has recorded.

I've been having a devil of a time finding biographical information about composer Alan Kryszak, even including his date and place of birth. Maybe he was spawned instead of being born in the usual manner? That would accord with the proliferation of multiple talents and interests in a most remarkable figure who is pianist, guitarist and baritone and has done notable work with the REV alt-rock band. He has also won recognition for his film scores, particularly for silent films (Broken Blossoms, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde) which have been released by TCM. And he‟s even a visual artist in the media of acrylic painting and woodburning.
