With the music industry in dire straits, creative deal-making is a must. It makes sense for artists and their handlers to focus on touring and merchandise revenues and use [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve made three complete trips around the world in the last 18 months and at every club I visited, at peak hour, when they finish all the other things, they go and play Thriller. I&#8217;m happy about it, but it [...]]]></description>

Roots touched me deeply because it’s the story of my ancestors. In fact, one night while I was working on the score, my wife at the [...]]]></description>
