Bill Sherman (Composer/Arranger) || Ep. 291

Welcome to Jake's Happy Nostalgia Show, the podcast where nostalgia comes alive!

Today, we had the pleasure of speaking with the incredibly talented composer, arranger, and orchestrator, Bill Sherman. Bill's musical journey has taken him from the bright lights of Broadway to the streets of Sesame Street, and everywhere in between. He's a key collaborator with Lin-Manuel Miranda, having orchestrated and arranged In the Heights, co-produced the Hamilton soundtrack, served as executive music producer on the tick, tick... BOOM! film, and been part of the innovative group Freestyle Love Supreme. In television, he was a composer and music director for the reboot of The Electric Company and since 2008, has been a composer and music director for Sesame Street! He's also lent his talents to shows like Nature Cat and Donkey Hodie.
