He has written two film scores, a Latin Requiem Mass, a song cycle, a set of variations, and 21 musicals. He got his start in music composition at an early age. Additionally, he performed "productions" in his toy theater with Julian and his Aunt Viola. In the spring of 1963, his father registered him as a part-time student at the Eric Gilder School of Music. He had written the music for Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats at the same time as he was working on Westonia!, a musical about Genghis Khan.
