SCL Presents 'Composer to Composer' With Jeanine Tesori, 12/14
By: BWW News Desk Dec. 05, 2009
Join the Society of Composers & Lyricists, in collaboration with NYU Steinhardt, and spend a very personal evening with one of New York's most-in-demand theatre and film composers, Jeanine Tesori, as she is interviewed by fellow NY theatre composer and SCL member Rob Reale. Ms. Tesori's credits include four Tony-nominated scores ('Caroline, or Change', 'Thoroughly Modern Millie', 'Shrek' and 'Twelfth Night') as well as critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic.
She and her productions have garnered Drama Desk, Obie, NY Drama Critics Circle, Lucille Lortel and Olivier Awards. Her songs for the movie 'Shrek the Third' and score for 'Nights in Rodanthe' are just two of her recent film credits. This SCL event will focus on her journey from Broadway musician to music director to theatre and film composer and will offer in-the-pit and behind the curtain accounts and anecdotes, featuring live performances of her recent work plus candid conversation about her creative process, both for the stage and film.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to pose your own question and to hear the author's own words regarding the challenges and rewards of making a living in the theatre.
