Creageivity 18 - with Composer and Conductor Lucas Richman
As Adrienne points out in Creageivity 18, listing the many and varied accomplishments of composer, musician, GRAMMY award winning conductor and writer LUCAS RICHMAN is quite the task. Coming from a family of performers, including his actor father and mother, Peter Mark Richman and Helen Richman, Lucas knew from early on that he would be a musician, and as we hear in this episode, at 17 he was commissioned to write the score for A Streetcar Named Desire.
Lucas gives fascinating insights into what a composer does and reflects on the inspiration and mentorship he gained from studying with Leonard Bernstein. We hear short excerpts from a few of his over 350 compositions, including a piece from The Warming Sea - an example of Lucas’ increasing work with educational and social awareness projects.
We also find out how conductors for film music require at least three eyes and are sometimes expected to work with an orchestra on zero rehearsal time. Eavesdrop an extraordinary career in music and prepare to be fascinated and charmed!
