This is such a cool video to watch as someone who wants to write musicals. Just as a writer in general, I have never heard advice quite as helpful.
smileysurvivor101 how's the writing going, what are you working on?
What a generous man without a trace of guile. Thank you Mr Schwartz.
I love that a picture that I took of him is on his wall. :-)
He is extremely inspirational and kind.
The conversation about the contemporary influences of Stephen has me reeling. I can hear both "This Guy's In Love With You" and "I Feel The Earth Move" in "Magic To Do." And I thought I couldn't love Stephen Schwartz any more than I already did. This interview is amazing. He is such a dear!
Stephen is always evolving as a writer, and that is one of the many reasons we admire him so greatly! We are thrilled you enjoyed their conversation, Bonnie.
Funny to hear Steve Schwartz say that Leonard Bernstein is the closest thing to a mentor ever. I was in the original cast of MASS. People either got Lenny or didn't. Those that did had an experience like nothing that could ever be described. To this day, all the time I spent with Lenny was the most influential of my life. I feel like the man knew more about everything than anyone I've ever met.
That's an amazing story and experience, William
This was fantastic! Now I'm eagerly awaiting the Jeanine Tesori interview!
Steven Swartz I love his performances even though he don't write as many he awesome composter and lyricist Love to see the Broadway show working in 1972 in play house square
Thank you, Dramatists Guild/Legacy Project for this.
We are so glad you're enjoying them! Thank you for your support.
Thank you for putting this out. Love Schwartz and will for sure be looking into Jeanine Tesori, she seems like a great person and writer.
You don't have to be a composer to get something from this.
Regardless of you creative pursuit, this video is a much watch.
Stephen is so cool! It would be so fun to just hang out with him.
I found a Tim Galloway book a few years back called the inner game of music. It's a great book and I probably will read it again soon. Thanks for the great interview!
Excellent interview. Thank you for posting. Such a treasure of feeling and wisdom.
Wonderful- wise person!
Thanks for this clip... I love Stephen Schwartz and his production in Vienna. "Schikaneder-The Musical", I have seen it for ten times. I miss it every hour and hope it will come back on stage soon. I am from Austria, but if "Schikaneder" will return on stage I will com back to see it again and again.
F-W Pucher will schikaneder come to broadway? I hope so.
Inspiring not only around music but the creative process
Now I want to hear everything from Stephen
The hostess glanced over Mr. Schwartz's comment, "...that Bob [Fosse] is looking up from somewhere and laughing...." That is a loaded comment.
@jearl Nix - he's probably running the place.
Thank you for uploading this insightful and entertaining interview. So much useful information here - very rewarding.
Beautiful. The romance of theatre.
This advice is so relatable - thank you! The song at the end had me in tears - I haven't heard that one before.

Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.

Great life advice/acknowledgement/realization - & could be a great song.
Such a treat. Thanks for sharing!
I love this. Thank you!
Yes! In every way, YES!!
Tesori is almost as prolific at this point.
She's probably the closest we have to Sondheim, imo
Great interview.
Stephen Schwartz I enjoy your prefaces
Lol, Stephen keeps a framed photo of his caricature on South Park. He should have showed up to the door to great Jeanine wearing a black "^ Chick Seat" T-shirt.
