Interview – Broadway Composer Alan Menken

DanceOn

Composer Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid) is busy getting the new musical Leap of Faith to Broadway starring Tony Award nominee Raúl Esparza, Jessica Phillips, Kendra Kassebaum, Kecia Lewis-Evans, Leslie Odom, Jr., Krystal Joy Brown and Talon Ackerman! Check out our behind-the-scenes interview with the Oscar-winning composer!

Broadway’s LEAP OF FAITH is based on the motion picture Leap of Faith, produced by Paramount Pictures Corporation and written by Janus Cercone. Directed by Tony Award nominee Christopher Ashley with choreography by Sergio Trujillo, LEAP OF FAITH features music by Academy and Grammy Award-winner Alan Menken, a book by Janus Cercone and Tony Award-winner Warren Leight, and lyrics by Glenn Slater.

Leap of Faith will begin previews on Tuesday, April 3 at the St. James Theatre (246 West 44th Street).

When his traveling ministry breaks down in a small Kansas town, part-time reverend and full-time con artist Jonas Nightingale (Esparza) quickly pitches a tent and invites the locals to a revival. As he cons the crowds and trades miracles for money, he’ll have to face a woman determined to stop him, a boy who puts his faith to the test, and maybe even his own redemption.

Paul Haslinger On Film Composing

ArtistsHouseMusic·2,298 videos

In this clip from http://www.artistshousemusic.org – Equally adept at computer generated music and classical orchestral elements, Paul Haslinger has established himself as a unique musical voice in the world of feature films. Classically trained in Salzburg and Vienna, he eschewed his classical roots to become a member of the pioneering electronic band, Tangerine Dream, in which he left his distinctive fingerprint on four highly successful albums and several films, including ‘Miracle Mile’, ‘Near Dark’ and ‘Canyon Dreams’, which earned him a Grammy nomination. Upon venturing out on his own, Haslinger had three critically acclaimed solo albums and scored two ground breaking animated science-fiction films, Planetary Traveler (1997) (V) and Infinity’s Child (1999) (V), for director Jan Nickman. He honed his film scoring skills for several years as the programmer for ‘Graeme Revell’ , providing the musical textures and atmospheres for such movies as Blow, The Negotiator (1998), The Siege (1998), Pitch Black (2000) and Tomb Raider, to name just a few.
