Ted Regklis

Ted Regklis is a Greek composer and sound artist based in Athens. His work spans film, television, theatre and contemporary performance — music that moves between classical structure and electronic texture, grounded in a minimalist approach to melody and atmosphere. He composes to ideas before images, reading the script and talking with the director until a single musical idea emerges that can hold the whole story. The themes he returns to — technology, human fragility, the textures of contemporary life — are not subjects to illustrate but forces that shape how a piece of music breathes.

Projects featuring his music have earned recognition including a CLIO Gold for the Parasite trailer, a CLIO Bronze for the Possessor teaser, and a CLIO Gold and three Cannes Silver Lions for WWF's Arctic Programme | Melting Point. His trailer and campaign work also includes Saltburn, Lee, Snowpiercer and Empire of Light.

Recent scores include Shalini Adnani's Our Share of Sand (BFI/Film4, Heretic; Cannes Great 8, 2026), Dimitris Athiridis's exergue – on documenta 14 (Berlinale 2024, New York Film Festival 2024, IDFA 2025), Nikola Ljuca's Rattlesnakes (a Creative Europe co-production), and the television series The Great Chimera (ERT/Beta Film) and Rififi (Cosmote TV). His music also features in Zain Duraie's SINK (TIFF Discovery 2025, BFI London Film Festival). Earlier work includes Zacharias Mavroeidis's The Summer with Carmen (Venice 2023), Tiago Teixeira's Custom and Vardis Marinakis's Zizotek and Silent Road.

In the performing arts, he has worked with the Greek National Opera, the National Theatre and the Athens Theatre on productions including Swan Lake, The Knights at the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, Babel and Golden Age. In 2026 he created the soundscape for the Greek National Opera's Callas Point exhibition at the Asklepieion of Epidaurus.

Alongside commissioned work, he develops personal projects through Music Pieces, an ongoing series exploring sound, storytelling and form across audio and visual media.
