I'd like to think the style is my own. Of course, I've been influenced by all the greats Rodgers and Hammerstein, Bernstein, Loesser, Lerner and Loewe, Sondheim. I guess the score is a hybrid of traditional and contemporary, though definitely not sung-through. As a composer, you always hope that you end up with something true to the genre, something built on the shoulders of all the giants that have come before youbut also fresh and original.
