“Andrew Gerle is my kind of songwriter. He and his collaborators have a way of letting their characters reveal themselves in all their complex humanity through the sensitivity, deftness and inventiveness of their music and lyrics. These beautifully crafted songs are marked by a sense of freshness and adventure that I greatly admire.”

- Sheldon Harnick (Fiddler on the Roof, Fiorello!, She Loves Me)

“These are characters with humanity and humor, written with precision and subtlety. Andrew’s songs make strong, specific promises – and then take delightfully surprising turns on their way to fulfilling them.”

- Rachel Sheinkin (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee)

“One of the most talented of our new generation of musical theater composers, Andrew Gerle is the real deal – a natural melodist. Andrew’s songs will be a real asset to any aspiring actor’s audition book.”

- Stephen Flaherty (Ragtime, Once On This Island)

“Andrew is a brilliant and inventive composer, a true craftsman whose music is unfailingly surprising, moving and bold. This is a sparkling collection of songs from which I plan to steal liberally.”

- David Shire (Baby, Closer Than Ever)

“Andrew Gerle writes for singers. Singing his songs is like having a gown tailor-made for you: elegant, filled with drama, a perfect fit. His songs inspire me to be the best vocalist (and actress, by the way) that I know how to be.”

- Heidi Blickenstaff (original cast - [title of show])

My first songbook is coming out, and I couldn’t be more excited. The folks at Chernay Printing went all out and the result is just gorgeous - 168 pages, 23 songs pulled from Meet John Doe, The Tutor, Gloryana, A Perfect Christmas, and more! I chose each song to be specifically suited for cabarets, showcases, and auditions, and each song is grouped by voice type for easy selection. High-quality, heavy-weight paper, a sewn binding and a laminated cover guarantee it will survive any kind of use looking good as new. And I’ll sign each book I sell!
