Don Rosler is an American lyricist, songwriter, and record producer. As a lyricist, Rosler collaborated with Ten-time Grammy Award winner Bobby McFerrin and award winning co-producers Linda Goldstein and Roger Treece on ''VOCAbuLarieS'' which garnered three 2010 Grammy nominations. Rosler was the recipient of a SESAC 2010 Jazz Award in recognition of his outstanding contribution, the most compelling masterpiece, as Jazz Times notes, is “Messages,” “a cornucopia of languages constructed by lyricist Don Rosler that rises like a melodious Tower of Babel, exalting the incomparable beauty of universal harmony.” Two of the three compositions ("Brief Eternity" and "Messages") Rosler wrote lyrics for on ''VOCAbuLarieS'' were originally commissioned by Grant Gershon, Artistic Director of the Los Angeles Master Chorale. These compositions had their world premiere at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in 2003. Rosler and Treece also teamed up to write a vocal take on Pat Metheny/Lyle May's "September 15th" for the "Swimming to London" album by Grammy-winning King's Singers and before that, a composition called "When Love Wins the Day" for the Chicago Children’s Choir. Don Rosler is the writer/co-writer and producer of the acclaimed concept album ''Rosler's Recording Booth'' (original songs inspired by Wilcox-Gay Recordio and Voice-o-Graph booth records), featuring Spottiswoode, Tam Lin, Terry Radigan, Jeremy Sisto, John Margolis, Jon Albrink, Isabel Keating, Tamara Hey, Kathena Bryant (from The Hippy Nuts) and Rosler. ''Rosler's Recording Booth'' was nominated by the Independent Music Awards for ("Best Concept Album" in 2011 ) and one of the songs, "Doris From Rego Park" was featured in the New York Times. Rosler is also the co-writer and co-producer of John Margolis’ debut album ''John Margolis: Christine's Refrigerator,'' the start of many creative collaborations between Rosler and Margolis. The title track was awarded Song of the Year by Just Plain Folks Music Organization and was featured on the Kitchen Sisters’ “Kitchen Stories” report (NPR’s “Morning Edition”) and on their audio-book, “Hidden Kitchens.” In 2013 Pulitizer Prize winning journalist, Jim Dwyer wrote about "Christine's Refrigerator" in ''The New York Times'' for his “About New York" column after singer-songwriter Christine Lavin created a video with her fans for this song. Another track from the ''John Margolis: Christine's Refrigerator'' record, “Tanta Belleza (So Much Beauty)” was prominently featured in the HBO/Cinemax film, ''The Kidnapping of Ingrid Betancourt.'' ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Don Rosler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
