DUNCAN SHEIK In addition to writing the music for Spring Awakening, Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter/composer Duncan Sheik has collaborated with playwright Steven Sater on The Nightingale, a musical based on the Hans Christian Andersen classic, which will premiere at the La Jolla Playhouse in the fall of 2007. Sheik has composed original music for the Public Theater’s Shakespeare in the Park production of Twelfth Night and for The Golden Rooms of Nero, which opened at the Magic Theater in San Francisco earlier this year. His self-titled debut album was an enormous popular and critical success and spent 30 weeks on the Billboard 200. Other albums include Humming, Daylight, Phantom Moon and White Limousine. His latest release, Brighter/Later, is a two-disc anthology of his Atlantic/Nonesuch albums. Sheik also composed and produced the original score for the feature film A Home at the End of the World, and his songs have laced the soundtracks of dozens of movies and TV shows.
