As Music Coordinator for dozens of Broadway and Off Broadway musicals, the range of John Miller's work runs the gamut from long-running smashes like Les Miserables and The Producers; to revivals of classics like The Sound Of Music and The Music Man; to new shows like Young Frankestein and Xanadu, Miller has helped shape the sound of the Great White Way for the last thirty years. This vast insight into the composition and creation of these shows gives him the perfect perspective to see new possibilities in the evergreens
on this recording.

Outside the theater world, John has been a first-call bassist over the years for an impressive range of musical icons from pop (Madonna, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra), rock (Aerosmith, Roger Daltrey, Jimmy Page), R&B (James Brown, P. Diddy, Luther Vandross), jazz (Gil Evans, Woody Herman, Ornette Coleman) and Classical (New York Philharmonic, Marilyn Horne, Dawn Upshaw).

His skill as a musician - along with his collaborations with so many giants of the industry - make him uniquely qualified to create an album not only for lovers of showtunes, but also to those who might hear them for the first time. In the culmination of two different but equally extraordinary careers, Miller boldly reinterprets these theater classics for audiences of every generation.
