We talk about his musical upbringings and starting out in high school as an actor, his transfer to the creative side of the table, his approach to arranging, the influence of Irwin Kostal and Don Pippin, as well as working with Mel Brooks, Jerry Herman, Marc Shaiman, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, Kander and Ebb, Jason Robert Brown, Randy Newman, John Barrowman, Barry Manilow, Pasek and Paul, as well as his time as a flying instructor, and how his time away changed his approach to conducting and playing with passion, and also his love for the BBC and their approach to music.
