NEW YORK, March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Andrew Lloyd Webber, Steven Spielberg, Elton John, Jim Steinman, Tommy Tune, Roger Miller and Boy George all have called on Steve Margoshes (http://www.stevemargoshes.com) to orchestrate their Broadway musicals and films because his special touch helps create hits. But to Margoshes, composer of the renowned musical, "Fame," his own compositions have always been center stage. Now, with Albany, 4Tay and Q Records simultaneously releasing eight CDs of his original neo-classical, romantic and theater music, his time has come.

Margoshes' new CDs range from symphonic versions of "Fame," to "Sun," an original "Audio Movie," created with "Hair" authors James Rado and Gerome Ragni, and "Sawing to New Heights," with Margoshes on piano and Dale Stuckenbruck on saw (yes, the kind available at Home Depot.)

The orchestral versions of music from "Fame," including "Romantic Suite From Fame" (Albany) and "Violin Suite From Fame" (Albany) are played by the Budapest Symphony Orchestra. The latter features 25 year-old violin phenomenon Barnabas Keleman, winner of the prestigious International Violin Competition in Indianapolis. Besides works from "Fame," both CDs include a range of other orchestral compositions by Margoshes.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
