REMEMBERING MARVIN HAMLISH

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.
