Gary Yershon

Gary Yershon is an English composer, born in London 2nd November 1954 [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0947665/bio] .

Yershon is one of a group of composers who have little or no concert or commercial recording career, but whose nevertheless prolific output is evidenced for the most part in UK theatre souvenir programs. Others in this group include Paddy Cunneen, Jason Carr and Adam Cork. Like them, Yershon's work has been limited almost exclusively to music for drama, mainly in theatre but also including radio, television and film.

He has also composed for dance [http://www.ballet-dance.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16247&view=previous&sid=1cb6fe58eb782b174fe2e3840c5668f6] .
