Randy Edelman
Randy’s music is not of an ordinary world, but rather from an other dimension …one that has no time for things that have no soul. Cascading wildly through infinity his music brings joy, an ephemeral spark, a firefly’s ethereal glow, the feeling of running against the wind, a quicksand of shadows and an echo of memories, the darkness of bitter coffee, the light of a madness that shines. His symphonies embody all of those emotions and more…sensitivity is his strength, romance his poetry…music his passion and predestination….
It’s never safe to think we are done in life. When we imagine we have finished our story destiny steps on turning the page and showing us another chapter. Randy’s career dances with change. From conducting orchestras in the pits of Broadway to Clive Davis and Columbia Records, to a pop career in the UK on Elton John’s Rocket record label, Randy wrote songs covered by icons including Patti LaBelle, Olivia, Newton-John, The Carpenters, Nelly, Willy Nelson, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Dionne Warwick, and even Bing Crosby. He opened arena and stadium concerts for The Carpenters, and even the legendary Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention….
Suddenly serendipity stepped onto the threshold of success and Randy went on to become one of the leading soundtrack architects for over 100 motion pictures and television themes. Some of those include “My Cousin Vinny”, “Ghostbusters ll”, “The Bruce Lee Story”, “Dragonheart”, “While You Were Sleeping”, “Kindergarten Cop”, “Twins”, the theme for the hit series “MacGyver”, the theme for the Olympics, and the monumental film “Last of the Mohicans” which earned him a Golden Globe nomination.
