He is someone who has never allowed commercialism to clip his wings, and who has always, for over 30 years, continued to open new musical frontiers.
Still searching, hungry, and outside conventional pathways, Frank Duval has long since escaped from the "golden cage" of show-business, and is again heading towards new artistic experiences.
Duval is the composer and virtuoso of sounds, who catered for "international highlights" with his albums, and has "often been copied", has remained settled, but musically, he remains out of reach. He has written a section of German television and pop-music history, which is, as yet, open ended, as we shall still hear from him and see him.
Born into an artists' family, he studied as an actor and dancer, but also sang with his sister, Maria. By the '60s, Duval was also composing music, both orchestral and pop, and his debut soundtrack, for an episode of the German serial Tatort, aired in 1977. From his 1979 debut "Die Schönsten Melodien Aus Derrick und der Alte", "Todesengel" became a moderate hit.
During the '80s, Frank Duval released several soundtracks, as well as proper artist albums (with occasional lyrical help from his wife, Kalina Maloyer). He hit the German charts several times, with 1983's "Ways," 1986's "Lovers Will Survive," and 1987's "When You Were Mine".
In addition, he wrote songs for the following artists: Ivan Rebroff, Alexandra, Karin Huebner, Margot Werner, Klaus Löwitsch and Maria Schell.

Derrick und Frank Duval...was für eine schöne Zeit...😍😍😍🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵💞💞💞
@pongicat
Ja es ist ein herrliches Stück, ich schaue jetzt jede Derrick Folge auf YouTube, Horst Tappert war ein sehr guter Schauspieler, ich sehe ihn sehr gerne, gerade heute.
@SonjaKostromin
Jaaa Gänsehaut pur bei dieser wunderbar mystischen Instrumentalmusik thenk yu Frank duval❤❤❤😢😢😊😊
@mawamw9000
Habe gerade die Derrick-Folge angesehen und mich sofort in diese Musik verliebt (auch wenn unter dem Derrick-Video in vielen Kommentaren die Musik gnadenlos niedergemacht wird). Zum Glück lässt sich über Geschmack nicht streiten - ich finde dieses Stück von F. Duval wunderschön. Freue mich über das Hochladen - vielen Dank 🧡
@FrankDuvalOfficial
Danke für Deine Worte! Die Krimi-Fans sind in Sachen Musik mitunter sehr gespalten. Die meisten meinen allerdings, dass die Melodien von Frank die Filme immer aufgewertet haben. Davon waren übrigens auch die Produzenten (z.B. Helmut Ringelmann) und die Regisseure (u.a. Helmut Ashley) sehr überzeugt. Duval-Musik war immer ein Erfolgs-Garant für die jeweilige Episode. Beste Grüße – Sven Hadon (Management Frank Duval).
@amelies3341
@Frank Duval Das stimmt, wurde die Musik bei Beginn gespielt, wussten die Zuschauer, dass der Film gut wird.
@orfamayQ
@Frank Duval Ich finde die Musik herrlich nostalgisch und gefühlvoll. Man braucht die Serie nichtmal zu kennen, um die Musik zu genießen. Finde aber auch in den Folgen gibt die Musik eine wunderbare Atmosphäre.
@patrickmeisinger825
Ein "Derrick" ohne die Musik von Frank Duval - unvorstellbar!
@petrak2257
@Frank Duval Ich bin mit "Derrick "und "Der Alte" groß geworden, ich fand die Lieder von Frank Duval damals schon großartig. Habe damals sogar die Singles gekauft.
Und auch jetzt noch ist diese Musik einfach nur großartig.
@andreaswohlgemuth7435
