Rob Meurer's Page

I've been very fortunate to be involved with some successful projects through the years, including the Christopher Cross hits (keys and arranging) and Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre (as MD). I also work in musical theatre and my shows written with Berton Averre have been seen in Los Angeles, Chicago, Wichita, and other fine cities.

I have taught and tutored sporadically during the years, and I absolutely love it. I taught basic record production at L.A.'s late lamented Grove School of Music, and I currently have had the honor of guest co-moderating at the Los Angeles School of Songwriting's Wednesday songwriters' workshop. I am slated to teach the Lyric Lab for MTEC, a new online music school launching out of New York early in 2010.

My wife Beth founded the Rising Star Children's Musical Theatre Workshop, of which I am also delighted to be a part, wearing the varying hats of music director, sound guy, joke puncher-upper, and, most importantly, snack consultant for kids ages 8 to 18. Rising Star has been one of the most satisfying experiences of my life.

I am a singer-songwriter, and also play in hit writer Jack Tempchin's band. I have recently completed all the lyrics for my old friend Christopher Cross' new album to be released in February 2010.

I am delighted to be a part of this consortium!
