Marvin Hamlish was the composer
I most admired. I was saddened
to hear of his death.
I wanted to create something
for my blog and You Tube.
I saw Chorus Line
twice at the Fox.
I bought the tape
and the music to
Chorus Line.
and even learned the first
page to “One.”
It inspired the opening song,
“Finding My Way.”
for my musical,
Silent Dreams
Marvin Hamlish came to Athens
for a concert. I got a balcony ticket,
went alone to absorb everything.
Then I asked if he would write,
Best Wishes on Silent Dreams
and he did.
I hoped this would be some kind
of magic touch.
The MUSIC to
Silent Dreams, too, will
always be around.
and I’ve arranged and recorded
a jazz version
of Silent Dreams, the waltz from
the musical-- and here’s
another Music video.
Thanks everyone for
watching.
I really appreciate it.
