THE BIGGER PICTURE with Timothy Spangler

MEGAN CAVALLARI, celebrated film and television composer, is our special guest this Sunday night! MEGAN has a musical resume that is lengthy and divers - more than a 100 film scores as performer, arranger, conductor, or composer; 25 television shows; 16 stage musicals; and hundreds of songs, jingles, and assorted musical offerings have earned her respect, acclaim, multiple professional awards. On top of this, she was the official composer of the L.A. Kings for ten seasons! Her first high-profile gig was alongside Danny Elfman as he composed and recorded the now-classic score from Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas," which lead to work on several subsequent Elfman scores. She then worked with legendary film scoring artists Jerry Goldsmith and Edward Shearmur, and artists such as Johnny Mathis. Currently, MEGAN is hard at work on a new animated musical film project called "Jacob Marley" with director Russ Francis, with several other high-profile film gigs in development. She's also begun a relationship with Grammy-nominated pop producer Eric Robinson, and is working with music supervisor/film producer Jonathon McHugh on a new opera about WWII hero Irena Sandler (who rescued 2500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto), which will debut with the Angel City Chorus.
