Listen to hear David talk about . . .

Why Composers don’t have to read or write music to compose a show.

What does a Dance Arranger actually do anyway?

How the modern musical has changed over the years and where he thinks it’s headed.

How he made a name for himself in a niche that no one knew much about.

One of the most common things that derails a show.
